Explanation

Customer journey map (D) is correct because it visually traces every step a customer takes from initial contact to achieving their goal, explicitly highlighting friction points, wait times, and inefficiencies. Its primary purpose is to identify where time is wasted so organizations can streamline the path to value - directly targeting how quickly customers reach their objective.

  • A (Lean consumption model) is wrong because it describes a framework of principles for reducing waste in consumption broadly, not a focused tool for mapping and minimizing customer time-to-goal.
  • B (Lean service management) is wrong because it applies lean thinking to internal service delivery processes, focusing on operational efficiency from the provider's perspective rather than the customer's journey.
  • C (Culture map) is wrong because it is a tool for visualizing organizational or team culture, unrelated to customer experience or goal attainment speed.

Memory tip: Think "journey = time on the road." A customer journey map tracks every step of the customer's trip - the longer or bumpier the road, the more time wasted. The map exists to shorten that road.
