Article : Serving Yourself Towards Productivity

What technologies are available for agents to ‘help themselves’ in improving productivity? We asked that question to contact center professionals to find out if there are self-serve solutions that actually work in increasing efficiency for agents.

A survey by Joss Jalbert, ContactCenterWorld.com

Call Center Manager
GFL Environmental Inc.
Canada

"I really don't think there is "agent specific" technology. The best thing a call center manager can do is show their agents what they are looking at (i.e. productivity reports). In my call center I have 4 pixel boards that indicate the current number of calls in queue and how long the longest call has been waiting. Seeing this information my agents know how busy the call center is and work accordingly."

"Agent realtime status monitoring, ACD Reports, Call recordings can all help agents improve productivity but it is workforce optimisation solutions that give the best results all the time."

 
Iaian Sherwell
MIS Manager
Merchants SA (South Africa)
South Africa

"There are not a large amount of tools that empower an agent to self improve. What does exist are systems and application that store and make information available to agents to improve themselves through e-Learning. These are usually merged with a Quiz that an agent would take to assess their level of knowledge. This is useful for teaching technical skills and keeping an agent product knowledge up to date but does little to improve the agents customer interaction skills. There are some new technologies that will use call evaluation scores and feedback from customer surveys to generate an agent performance profile. This in turn can be used to identify specific agent weaknesses and make suggestions on areas of improvement. This can then be used to optimize the use of agent development resources. If knowledge is a weak area online knowledge systems can be suggested as a solution. If knowledge is good but tone is a problem then an interaction with a trainer may be recommended. The automation of the identification of development areas through the merging of quality assurance and customer feedback and analysis using modern statistical tools to is an exciting frontier. It must however focus on improved training resource usage rather than reducing the amount of agent training and up skill."
