Get2Grips 2024: A trusted format appreciated by its audience
Once again this year, we hope to exceed your expectations and aim to provide an even better experience during Get2Grips. BluePoint’s professional and contemporary event venue remains the place to be. The well-known concept of Get2Grips also continues, but we’ve added some additional novelties to make your attendance even more valuable.
We are switching to English to make it easier for non-Dutch-speaking participants to attend the event and participate in the discussions.
Coming up this year! The break-out sessions allow us to offer a wider range of topics and so you will be able to focus on what is most relevant to you.
We will start a little earlier, at 1.30pm, so that you can get even more out of your day and take full advantage of everything Get2Grips has to offer.
Speed Networking is an efficient and time-saving way to meet new contacts. You will get the opportunity to interact with many of the attendees in an orchestrated format.

Keynote sessions
As usual, Jordy is also talking about customer centricity this year. In addition to the need to pay attention to the customer’s emotions that lead to a certain experience, Jordy talked about some principles within customer focus last year. He did this based on the acronym OSCAR:
• Ownership
• Start to give
• Cross the line
• Always Yes
• Rituals
Many people found this inspiring, but thought this was more for the coolblues, bol.coms or the Eftelings of this world. Don’t you need a huge budget for this or an army of service specialists or expensive consultants?
Fortunately, the answer to these statements is no.
During his session, Jordy goes into more detail about how you can be just as customer-friendly as, for example, a Coolblue or an Efteling.
Or in a broader sense: how do you ensure that you sell a service or product in such a way that there is an extra chance that a customer will come back to you and tell his or her friends and family about the positive experience?
Being sustainable is not only about providing relevant services in the future, but also about guaranteeing service delivery today. The current customer expectation of service management is no longer just about assuring that what you agreed in the SLA is provided. How it is provided becomes equally important. That expectation is part of the XLA. However, working with XLA in a sustainable fashion, has consequences towards how you manage time.
We have learned to maximize available time by filling up time with work. My statement is that this is no longer effective if you want to genuinely connect with your customers and their experience journey. To achieve that ambition, you need to free up time! We are going to invest how frameworks like ITIL provide that shift from filling up time efficiently to freeing up time, allowing experience to be a sustainable part of your service provisioning today and in the future.
Break-out sessions
USM is a universal, standardised method to manage service delivery in all conceivable task areas. In this session, USM Professional and accredited USM trainer, Patrick Belmans, will take a closer look at how service organisations can gain (back) control over their services with just five processes and eight workflows, in order to start operating more efficiently and effectively.
In deze presentatie wordt besproken hoe de integratie van deze twee disciplines de beveiliging van een organisatie aanzienlijk kan verbeteren. Er wordt ingegaan op de uitdagingen en voordelen van het op één lijn brengen van kwetsbaarhedenbeheer met IT-assetmanagement, waarbij wordt geïllustreerd hoe deze synergie kan zorgen voor een uitgebreider beeld van beveiligingsrisico’s. Door de onderlinge samenhang van IT-middelen en kwetsbaarheden te begrijpen, kunnen organisaties effectievere strategieën ontwikkelen voor het beperken van bedreigingen.3 Take aways van de presentatieEen goed begrip van waarom IT-assetmanagement een beveiligingsdomein zou moeten zijn
