We are really pleased to share our brand new joint report in partnership with Disruptive Innovators Network, and supported by Salesforce: Customer engagement – fresh perspectives!
Following the positive feedback from our previous joint reports, we thought for our third report we’d tackle a very topical theme on how we can improve the way housing providers engage with their tenants and residents.
The research is framed around innovations happening within the social housing sector, along with external and international perspectives. Some of the findings are challenging and you may not agree with them all. The important bit is we keep how we think about tenants and residents needs and expectations at the forefront of housing operations.
