About the Webcast
Workforce optimization (WFO) is a key aspect of call center operations and involves ensuring that agents are performing at their best, and that staffing levels are optimized to meet customer demand. Some issues we will cover:
- Ways that workforce strategies can help to enhance employee involvement, motivation, and implementation of rewards and recognition to create a more dedicated and dynamic organizational culture.
- Where optimized efficiency can enhance performance by making the best use of available resources, ensuring maximum productivity and minimal waste, thus achieving the desired outcomes with the least amount of effort and cost.
- Ways to unleash the power of data in order to transform your business into an insight-driven operation to improve performance.
- How to bust the myth that one must sacrifice optimal staffing levels to empower employees with control over when they want to work.
- How to play to your agents skills and create schedules that play into their strengths in order to melt off your AHT.
- How human-AI interconnected opportunities are transforming the CX landscape to enhance employee abilities, creating a workforce with augmented skills that deliver exceptional results.
