A phase of artificial intelligence has revolutionised the buying behaviour of customers: collecting information, the buying process and customer service have changed dramatically.

In a world of automatisation the most important question remains: how can I be customer-oriented? Steven is a much asked for keynote speaker for our events, always a highlight. He has a unique and authentic style: with a combination of academic depth and well-built cases he spices up his presentations with a tremendous amount of humor. - Anthony Belpaire, Google.
