The World’s Most Customer-Obsessed Hotel Brand

About this episode

CitizenM’s CXO, CDO, and CPO (yes… all three!), Casper Overbeek, joins Lacey to reveal how one of the world’s most innovative hotel brands uses technology to empower people — not replace them. From launching a wildly successful paid loyalty program to redesigning customer journeys with AI and real-time feedback, Casper shares how CitizenM is redefining modern hospitality. Plus, he talks about their recent acquisition by Marriott, how a Slack-integrated feedback loop transformed their ops, and the loyalty that lives beyond points: the subscription model that works.
