Wit-Gele Kruis West-Vlaanderen as the most patient-centered organization and Neuhaus as the most customer-centered organization are the winners of the 2023/2024 Customer-Centered Organization Awards.
Wit-Gele Kruis West-Vlaanderen
Congrats to the more than a thousand employees of Wit-Gele Kruis West-Vlaanderen, who are always ready to give their all to their patients.
The winner of the most patient-oriented organization of 2023 is an organization that’s been practicing “the art of customer orientation” for a few years now.
This organization and company headquarters have made it their mission to put the patient first. They’ve made it a point to incorporate this into their organization, processes, and resources.
But the work never stops. Every day, they’re learning and polishing to create an even better patient experience. They’re a learning organization, in other words.
The patient is at the center of everything they do. It’s a simple idea, but this organization makes it a reality, no matter what. In fact, this is a lifetime achievement award.
Neuhaus
The same goes for the team at Neuhaus, who work day in and day out to ensure that not only the chocolate, but also the customer is at the center of their organization. “Without satisfied customers, an organization has no reason to exist.”
It’s a very palatable story, hung on a clear metaphor, with a broad vision behind it.
The organization is very value-driven, and manages to translate this into daily operations and behaviors.
Everyone knows exactly what is expected of them. This is combined with a high level of commitment to improving processes, while always playing the ball and not the man.
The culture of customer-centricity is clearly in place all along the value chain, and there is a palpable sense of this.

Patient-Centricity
Customers or patients are the lifeblood of any healthy organization. No business without customers or patients.
Organizations that place the human at the center of everything they do, have the most significant potential for success.
They have more returning customers/patients, better margins, and happier personnel.
They have cost-efficient processes and implement solutions that provide value for their stakeholders.
They build an organization for exchange and collaboration.
The management of these companies has a strong vision and values of customer- or patient-centricity.
We want to showcase these organizations and set them as inspiring examples for their fellow business captains.
Annita Beysen, u.sentric
The Customer-Centered Organization Award 2024 is awarded to the most customer-centered or patient-centered organization in Belgium.
Customer-centricity covers different fields: it is about leadership, processes, resources, structure, and of course, culture.
Are you a candidate or do you know an organization or company that deserves this award? Then let us know.
Who is eligible: organizations active in Flanders and with a minimum of 50 employees.
The jury of the CCO Awards will evaluate your submission based on established selection criteria.
u.sentric developed an in-house model to examine how customer-centered an organization is. This Customer-Centered Maturity Model (CCMM) is an assessment that analyzes organizations on 5 important organizational dimensions: Leadership, Process, Resources, Culture, and Structure.
It shows organizations how mature they are when it comes to being customer-centered, and what areas of improvement there are to become even more customer-centric.
We expect submissions to reflect on how customer-centered their leadership is.
CCO Awards submissions should have internal processes that support customer-centered efforts.
Entries should reflect on how their allocated resources enable the customer-centered vision.
Participating organizations should have a culture that reflects their customer-centered approach.
The organizational structure of submissions is customer-centered.
You can check a lot of the boxes of the assessment questions? Please pre-register through the form below. No strings attached 🙂
We’ll contact you after pre-registration to assist you in filling out the CCO Awards-assessment.
