Scaling artificial intelligence within customer experience rarely happens under ideal conditions. In this session from CX Leaders Advance, Ugonwa Nwoye, Andrew Esemezie, CCXP, and Winfred Umerah share how MTN Nigeria has evolved Zigi from a menu-driven chatbot into an AI-enabled customer service engine operating across multiple channels. The presenters examine how MTN Nigeria has pursued its AI-CX ambitions while navigating four interconnected layers of complexity: technology, people, processes, and market conditions. The session explores the role of cross-functional collaboration, customer-effort reduction, digital adoption, governance, and continuous capability development in moving from isolated automation toward more connected and responsive customer journeys.
