Customer Journey Workshop Canvas

Here is a blank Customer Journey canvas for you and your team to download, print and use for your own workshop activities. Digital tools for mapping and designing the Customer Journey are great assets for any team that is serious in their Customer Experience efforts. Although, when it comes to the act of running customer journey workshops, many of us still prefer the analogue way of doing this. And gathering the team around the whiteboard, using post-it-notes and discuss and co-create is a great way not just to map the customer journey, but also to build the team and making everyone part of the conversation.
