Together, we create value, sustainably and continuously.

Alexander Brenk – Senior Global Experience Improvement Manager.

To meet and succeed customer’s expectations, we need to align these expectations with the processes, identify gaps and systematically close them to ensure and improve a seamless and sustainable customer-brand relationship.

About me.

I provide a modular framework that can be seamlessly adjusted to accommodate changing business landscapes. It is centered around continuous improvement, enabled through a data-based and initiative-driven approach, rooted in the organizational culture and its processes. As the customer’s ambassador, I empower organizations and individuals to thrive through collaboration, co-creation, and the commitment to Continuous Improvement, generating value by building customer ambassadors, internally and externally.
Putting the customer first requires a collective effort to truly understand them, take effective action, and measure improvements. This is done by analyzing existing structures and processes, critical touchpoints, participants, roles, and responsibilities and developing improvements based on relevant data. Including a solution-finding approach and challenging myself to improve my daily routine continuously enables me to add value to my work.

PERSONAL.

I am an active individual who finds balance in sports, especially outdoor activities. Mountaineering holds a special significance for me. It's about entering unfamiliar heights and the balance between an ambitious goal, quite visually symbolized by the mountain's summit, and a focused yet calm mind.

Capturing moments via camera has always been an important companion throughout my journeys. I'm constantly learning and experimenting, pushing myself to see the world in new ways. It is a journey of self-discovery, a way of exploring and the strongest personal element of my holistic approach to improve sustainably and continuously. To discover my images click here.
