Presenting for Public Service topic

Closing the September month, I was invited to deliver a short presentation on how Contact Center solution becoming the core of Public Service for government sector. I was happy that the response and enthusiasm shown. I was honor to provide few key insight about how the contact center background and industry were all about now.  The event held at Senayan Gold and Driving Range, but feel sorry I dont have time to do a driving activities.  Looking at the audience, we were sure that we will have a follow up events in more detail and prepare for this segment of user.  A good service from government sector is also a mandatory expectation from Indonesia society.

I was sharing my experience and my visit about Taxation call center, specially on what I got from Australian Tax Office (ATO) benchmark in Year 2011.  I am very glad that I met and network with key person from ATO during the Australia ContactCenterWorld in July 2011, so I was able to have a fruitful visit back then.

CALL CENTER Book

CALL CENTER Handbook by Elex Media - Kompas Gramedia publisher

 

Whenever we think of services in any industry, 'Call Center' is the word that immediately pop up in our mind. Initiating a complaint, have questions, or in need of information relating to a product / service from any organization, than Call Center is the answer for it. Call Center consider to be a 'unknown' world for quite long time and consider as a 'garbage can'. Not many people realized or understand what is it like working in a Call Center, except for those who engaged with the daily Call Center operational. Who says Call Center staff will be forever stuck in their desk using a headset, and becoming the  'trash can' for customers complaint and negative emotion?

Who says Contact Center staff are living a boring day to day monotonous routine work? I am compiling my 15 years experience in the world of contact center starting as Contact Center Agent in a book called Call Center Handbook. Starting from the inside and perception of the world's of Call Center, both operational and managerial, to an interesting life as a Call Center professional. The story are filled with real life case study and far away from a boring reading book.

Notes from Indonesian Consumers Foundation

 

YLKI (Indonesian Consumer Foundation) notes for

"CALL CENTER" Handbook



There are two indicators to express a good level of state consumer protection in any country. First, there are a growing culture of complaint (complaint habit) whenever consumer feel they are being violated by industry or businessman. Second, having a tradition of an independent comparison testing (comparative testing), either by consumer organizations, media and other independent institutions.

Talking about complaint habit, some statistical to be envy of comparing to other countries explain below. In Malaysia year 2009, the National Consumer Complaint Center (NCCC) received 32 369 complaints of consumers. In the UK, The Financial Services Authority, on 2nd half of 2010 received 1.7 million complaints of consumers of financial services.
The Banking Ombudsman in India during 2009-2010 received 79 266 complaints of consumer financial services. While for Indonesia, the field of Consumer Complaint YLKI in 2011 "only" received 525 consumer complaints. Is it good or better we are alert of it.

There are two things on why the rate of complainants in these countries considerately high. In addition to the complainant culture, this is also supported by the ease and various access channels to launch a complaint, mention the core channel is a CALL CENTER.

Consumer complaints in this new business era is very important and meaningful in the efforts of quality improvement of product / service. So we dont get surprise that various organization are competing to provide an ease and good call center as the main access for consumers who would launch a proper complain.

The launch of "Call Center" handbook has two important meanings. For consumers is to help develop the complainant culture, at least through the call center. For business entities, this is the important guide to design  a proper Call Center as the access point management for inquiries/complaints, so business can get lots of feedback from consumer, to take into consideration for quality improvement of the product / service. ***
