Overview

Humanizing Digital Experience explores how technology-driven business environments can be designed around human cognition, behavior, and values to enhance customer engagement and marketing performance. Grounded in a customer-centric philosophy, the book examines how organizations can motivate consumers and co-create value through human-computer interaction, interpersonal experience, cognitive reasoning, and interactive communication. Bringing together insights from digital experience design, cognitive ergonomics, and consumer psychology, the author addresses the growing need for human-centered digital design in modern marketing systems.

This book presents contemporary perspectives on collective engagement in virtual business settings and demonstrates how firms can improve digital and platform-based marketing performance. Structured into two thematic parts and five chapters, each chapter includes real-world case studies, introductory overviews, and concluding summaries to support learning and practical application. Designed for academics, researchers, and marketing practitioners, Humanizing Digital Experience offers a rigorous yet accessible framework for understanding the convergence of technology, psychology, and marketing in today's digital economy.
