Macquarie takes double gold at global awards with Best Customer Experience and CEO of the Year<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Global<\/a><\/td>\nMacquarie Technology Group<\/a> (ASX: MAQ), has taken double gold at the annual World Communications Awards<\/a> hosted virtually from London. The company received the award for the best Customer Experience<\/em> and David Tudehope won CEO of the Year.<\/em><\/p>\n

Macquarie received the Customer Experience (CX) Award<\/strong> for its Heartbeat program and outstanding customer experience measured by a world-leading +87 NPS. The Heartbeat program encourages Macquarie\u2019s entire team to delight customers and literally do the opposite of industry counterparts.<\/p>\n

Macquarie\u2019s CEO David Tudehope<\/em> was recognised for his 28-year career, championing the de-regulation of the telco industry, bucking the trend of poor customer service among competitors, and pioneering innovative technologies in Australia, including colocation data centres<\/a> in the early 2000s and SD-WAN<\/a> in 2016.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

 <\/p>\n

Macquarie\u2019s antithetical approach to industry counterparts is illustrated in its share price growth \u2013 over the past three years, it has risen 83% versus the overall decline of 18% across other telcos[1]<\/sup><\/a>. The company delivered its sixth consecutive year of profitable growth in its most recent FY20 results<\/a>, which underscored a circa-$100m investment into sovereign government and enterprise data centres in Australia this year.<\/p>\n

Presenting Mr. Tudehope with the award at the ceremony held overnight in London, Nokia UK and Ireland CEO Cormac Whelan said:<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the CEO of the Year, we’re definitely looking for the X-Factor and we definitely found it here. The judges described the winner as the most customer experience focused CEO<\/span> they’ve ever seen. Which has resulted in his company delivering a net promoter score at the same level as Apple and Amazon.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe championed increased competition in his own domestic market and has delivered outstanding growth for the company he himself founded in 1992.\u201d<\/p>\n

David Homer, Senior Client Partner at Capita, who awarded the Customer Experience Award, added:<\/p>\n

\u201cProviding the best all-round experience with customers is the focus for this particular award. The winner motivated staff to look for ways to delight customers and hence increasing the company’s net promoter score.\u201d<\/p>\n

Commending the awards, Macquarie Technology Group<\/em> Chairman Peter James said:<\/p>\n

\u201cThis award is a testament to Macquarie\u2019s purpose since day one to make a difference in our industry, and I\u2019d like to thank our staff and customers for making it possible.<\/p>\n

\u201cDavid and Macquarie have always placed customer service experience at the centre of decision making, from product release, to staff hiring profiles, to staff incentives. This award provides a shining example of an Australian company setting the bar for outstanding customer service on a global stage.\u201d<\/p>\n

The World Communications Awards<\/strong> are the most revered mark of achievement in the global telecom industry<\/em>. For over 22 years, the awards have recognised innovation excellence in global telecoms companies and attract hundreds of submissions annually.<\/p>\n
