Elisa: Transforming customer work and finding new, agile ways of working
How to bring more customer-centric thinking into customer work? Withmore helped one of the biggest Finnish telecom companies Elisa to find agile ways of working for three cross-functional pilot teams developing a more customer-centric way of working.
“Now we are really lightyears ahead. But it took time, longer than I first expected”, Karolina Baszarkiewicz describes the journey.

“I’m an enthusiast, and that is contagious. Sometimes people can be a bit wary when facing new improvement challenges. But when we get into working it together, challenges can usually be solved with surprisingly simple means. That is the best part of this work.”
