Exceptional Care Experiences: Building Trust, Loyalty, and Connection Across Industries presented by TAG CX Society and TAG Digital Health Society

Exceptional Care Experiences: Building Trust, Loyalty, and Connection Across Industries presented by TAG CX Society and TAG Digital Health Society

Thursday, August 20, 2026 (5:00 PM - 8:00 PM) (EDT)

Description

Exceptional experiences do not happen by accident. Across healthcare, hospitality, retail, and other service-driven industries, leading organizations intentionally design experiences that build trust, create emotional connection, reduce friction, and strengthen loyalty. 

Hosted jointly by TAG Digital Health and TAG CX, this cross-industry panel will explore how organizations design and deliver exceptional experiences across the full customer, guest, and patient journey. Inspired in part by the principles of Unreasonable Hospitality, the conversation will examine how organizations combine operational standards with the moments, behaviors, and capabilities that make people feel genuinely understood and cared for, from human interactions and service delivery to digital and omnichannel experiences. 

Leaders from healthcare, hospitality, retail, and customer experience will share practical lessons from their organizations, what industries can learn from one another, and how these principles for building exceptional experiences can be applied within healthcare’s uniquely complex and personal environment. 

Following the panel, attendees may join an optional tour of Emory Winship Cancer Institute to learn how a patient-centered strategy shaped the facility’s design and construction and how the physical environment supports the experience of patients, families, and care teams.
