Employee Experience
Learn why we are the only business consulting group to choose when creating better Contact Centers.
Employees are the cornerstone of delivering an excellent customer experience and building a contact center that operates efficiently. How can you ensure that from the first day of recruiting a new employee, through their career path with the company, and every coaching session, that you are effectively managing their performance in a way that creates an excellent experience for them, and stronger results for you?
Our Process
Our approach is to dive deep into your human capital framework and assess the processes and systems that support the employee from recruitment all the way through their journey with the company. We believe that a key to success is looking at the quantitative data like employee surveys, coaching and quality scores etc. while overlaying that with qualitative data gleaned through focus groups, interviews, agent side by sides, and observations. Our assessments provide actionable recommendations that can not only improve the employee experience, but simultaneously improve the operations and results of your contact center.
Here are some areas we look at when identifying areas of pain with employee experience:
Knowledge & Expertise
Do they possess a deep understanding of the products and services offered, allowing them to provide accurate and helpful information to customers.
Quality & Consistency of Service
Happy and motivated employees are more likely to go the extra mile to solve customer problems, providing higher quality of service, building loyal customers.
Lower Attrition Rates
Employees with longer tenure possess greater knowledge and experience. This can lead to better customer satisfaction as well as cost savings in training new employees.
Employee Empowerment
If employees feel empowered to make decisions that can benefit the customer, this leads to excellent employee experience and enhanced customer satisfaction.
Stress & Burnout
It’s no secret that contact centers can be high stress environments. Stressed employees are less patient and empathetic, which can negatively affect their interactions with customers.
Brand Representation
The level of satisfaction an employee has with their job can reflect in the way they talk about the company and its products/services, directly influencing customer perceptions.
Opportunities for Growth & Career Paths
When agents have opportunities for growth and a path to a long career, they are likely to stay and provide their best work, improving attrition.
