Talent and Performance Management

Talent acquisition, development, and retention have become even more challenging over recent years; especially with the optionality that exists for today’s contact center employee. Competing for and retaining the best talent requires more than top wages. Today’s employee is seeking convenience, which may include working from home and flexible schedules. They also want a career path, recognition, engagement, and an opportunity to participate in developing the business and themselves. Inflight consultants have created contact center environments that enabled personal and professional growth. Listening to your customers and employees is an imperative for any well-run business…as is data to inform where opportunities for personal development exist. The best run contact centers view people as their most important asset. Look to Inflight to partner with you to plan a talent management strategy that when executed will culminate with your business becoming the employer of choice.

Analytics/Decision Support

Contact Center analytics is the compilation, and reporting of performance metrics or KPI’s (aka, key performance indicators) that inform effective decision-making aligned with the goals and objectives of your business. Tracking agent/enterprise KPI’s that matter most in a sales or service environment requires customization. The more common types of analytics include: handle time, call volume and arrival patterns, average speed to answer, service levels, file penetration, speed-to-lead, first contact resolution, speech analytics, self-service utilization, customer satisfaction and revenue per interaction. Naturally, this is not an all-inclusive list as many of the aforementioned metrics may not be required for your business model. Analytics are an operational imperative for all contact centers optimized to deliver the best possible results for the business it serves. Look to Inflight for assistance in packaging, designing and operationalizing KPI’s/metrics that can be leveraged to intuitively inform decisions that optimize the performance of your contact center, and agents across all interaction channels.

Strategy

Setting strategy for your contact center begins with empowering your customers and contact center agents.

Often times the contact center agent delivers the first impression for your business and through their actions are responsible for building your brand. This fact makes talent acquisition, development and retention critical aspects of any successfully run contact center and business. Hand-in-hand with quality talent and empowerment is meeting, if not exceeding, your customers’ needs on the channel of their choice. A sound modernization and digital strategy, including self-service, is an absolute for businesses that want to engage their customers and create brand loyalty.

Voice of the Customer

A flourishing business requires the loyalty and trust of its customers. In most cases, businesses struggle more so with retention than acquisition, which is why listening to your customers is vitally important to the overall success of your business. Focusing on what customers share with your business directly or indirectly by way of public-facing reviews dovetails with many other forms of research. Survey tools such as Net Promoter Score (NPS) can be coupled with AI, Speech analytics and conversational intelligence solutions. The result for you is business intelligence that informs a continuously improving operating model. By way of VoC techniques, Inflight can help you reveal new opportunities that will lead you on a path towards creating consistently exceptional customer experiences.
