Thesis topic
“The Impact of Frontline Service Robots on the Customer Experience and Customer Choice in High Contact Service Settings”
Thesis project
Given organizational benefits of service robots, their market will drastically expand, changing the service delivery models across most service sectors. It is of utmost importance to understand how and to what extent these robots transform customer behaviour and customer experience, making sure that productivity and other organizational benefits of service robots do not come at the price of service excellence. My research attempts to enrich our understanding of real-life robot adoption and the impact of service robots on customer choice and experience.
