Customer experience is the top business function and the reason for digital transformation efforts.

Customer centricity is crucial to drive digital transformation of every business function and the delivery of superior Customer Experience. For example, the finance function, by most standards, is primarily a back-office function with little interaction with the customer. It only becomes a Customer Experience issue when the customer gets an incorrect invoice that is difficult to get corrected. And this can significantly affect a business's bottom line when compounded over multiple customers.
