Challenge<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Polestar, an electric performance car brand, had set its sights on becoming global leader from day one. By the end of 2020, to compete with key competitor Tesla, the company is set to have a presence across 10 markets, with over 50 new spaces and 700+ new employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its rapid expansion in motion and \u2018go-live\u2019 dates set across markets, the pressure was on to have all customer-facing staff equipped to deliver a consistent customer experience. Polestar tasked Prophet to build out a clear customer experience strategy that addressed training, recruitment, customer service, customer care, operations and data strategy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Prophet began by understanding the training needs and ambitions \u2013 both for the near term and beyond – to define the desired outcomes based on the employee\u2019s level and role. The team’s also helped Polestar align on what \u2018good\u2019 training looks like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This led to the development of a curriculum plan, tailored to the needs and learning journey of each employee group. Working in close collaboration with various subject-matter-experts across Polestar, we created over 30 hours of training content including eLearning modules, live training events and self-study exercises. From how to tell the Polestar story and what differentiates Polestar products, to how to respond to various customer scenarios and role-specific do\u2019s and don\u2019ts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also developed a training template and style guide to ensure a consistent and professional look and feel for all content produced across the globe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <\/article>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n
