Abstract
In this interview with Piyush Gupta CEO of DBS, we explore the bank’s market-oriented transformation journey from an underperforming mainly local Singaporean bank to becoming a globally significant Asian-based player earning accolades such as “World’s Best Bank.” We explore Gupta’s role in promoting market orientation and his focus on customer experience. We learn why market orientation became so central to the transformation and how it guided the steps along the way. We also learn of the role of technology in reshaping market orientation and particularly in enabling much enhanced inter functional co-ordination and the significance of storytelling in maintaining the momentum of customer-centricity. Gupta shares with us how DBS, as an orchestrator of ecosystems created to enhance customer journeys, utilizes behavioral data and real-time insights to anticipate and address customer needs. The paper concludes by proposing future research directions, including the impact of technology on market orientation, the role of storytelling in customer centricity, and the use of behavioral data by ecosystem orchestrators.

期刊介绍:
The AMS Review is positioned to be the premier journal in marketing that focuses exclusively on conceptual contributions across all sub-disciplines of marketing. It publishes articles that advance the development of market and marketing theory.The AMS Review is receptive to different philosophical perspectives and levels of analysis that range from micro to macro. Especially welcome are manuscripts that integrate research and theory from non-marketing disciplines such as management, sociology, economics, psychology, geography, anthropology, or other social sciences. Examples of suitable manuscripts include those incorporating conceptual and organizing frameworks or models, those extending, comparing, or critically evaluating existing theories, and those suggesting new or innovative theories. Comprehensive and integrative syntheses of research literatures (including quantitative and qualitative meta-analyses) are encouraged, as are paradigm-shifting manuscripts.Manuscripts that focus on purely descriptive literature reviews, proselytize research methods or techniques, or report empirical research findings will not be considered for publication. The AMS Review does not publish manuscripts focusing on practitioner advice or marketing education.
