Service as a Quantifiable Metric
Average Handle Time, Schedule Adherence, Wrap Time, After Call Work, Turnaround Time, Abandonment…sound familiar? These and many other metrics are lauded as the guiding principles that drive success in many contact center environments. These metrics typically allow for management of a P&L line items such as personnel and telephony. On the flipside, quality is often evaluated to ensure soft service is not short-changed as metrics are driven forward.
In this session you will learn how to invert the metrics to place an emphasis on quality as a P&L driver instead, how to measure quality objectively, and how quality can be used to materially improve the other key indicators. Please join us as we look at ways to turn convention on its ear, and explore methods for reshaping the contact center paradigm including calls, chat, and written correspondence. I’m not a lecturer, so please expect to be engaged in a fully interactive session.”
