Why banks should stop thinking in channels

Customers don't experience channels. They experience one relationship that keeps forgetting who they are.

Channel thinking is an organizational artefact. It made sense when the branch, the call centre and the app were run by different people with different budgets.

The customer sees none of that. They see a journey that restarts every time it crosses an internal boundary.

Journey ownership is the structural fix — and it is a governance decision long before it is a technology one.
