How will call center managers know if agents need help with a call?

This improve average handle time and reduces contact center operating cost.

Adherence Monitoring & Employee Engagement

What is adherence monitoring?

Adherence refers to a metric used to determine whether call center agents work the allowed time on their schedule. Calculating this metric involves determining a percentage value by dividing the scheduled time by the amount actually worked. After accounting for scheduled breaks, businesses should strive to maximize adherence by moving this figure as close to 100 percent as possible. Adherence monitoring provides 24-7 real-time agent monitoring that includes reports on the agent’s state at any time. Since employees may need coaching to improve productivity, adherence monitoring also offers direct agent alerts to help call center staff improve productivity in real-time. Even relatively small gains in average agent productivity can significantly reduce call center costs. At the same time, agents appreciate the alerts because they help them stick to their schedules and meet and exceed individual performance goals.

Why is employee engagement important?

Employee engagement refers to developing an enthusiastic and committed staff. Engaged employees believe their efforts make a difference to their employers, and in turn, the business supports their continued performance and wellbeing. Employees who feel engaged will constantly seek to please customers, improve their performance, and view their job as more than a means to earn a paycheck. While these motivated employees feel challenged by their work, they also view their company’s success as critical to their own personal success. Employee engagement matters because businesses with an engaged workforce report better performance. This enhanced productivity translates to faster growth, higher customer retention, longer customer retention, and increased earnings and profits. Companies that provide their employees with the best possible experience at work make more money. In contrast, disengaged employees cost the business money because they’re less interested in their jobs, often because they lack the tools to improve their performance.

How does employee engagement work?

Call center automation uses rules-based features to enhance employee engagement in three critical areas: employee development, job satisfaction, and performance. The rules allow automatic triggering of crucial employee engagement programs as the employees perform their jobs in real-time. Automated reporting monitors the performance of each agent and the entire call center. Some highlights of the features that will allow for enhanced employee engagement include: The system can automatically trigger such rewards as extra breaks for high-performing agencies during periods of lower call volume. In contrast, it can also automatically alert managers to assist agents with lower overall performance or who appear to struggle with a specific phone call. Automation can identify time for coaching or professional development during low-volume periods. To keep all employees in the loop, managers can even create updates for all agents and send them during a low-volume period. As a benefit to both the call center operation and individual employees, the system can use employee schedules and anticipated future call volumes to make schedules more flexible. It can offer the agents a chance to choose voluntary time off during low-volume periods and voluntary overtime during anticipated peaks in volume.

What is an intelligent personal assistant?

Intelligent personal assistants serve as virtual assistants to every staff member, whether they work inside a call center or remotely. Intelligent call center automation solutions can keep track of billions of data points from all of a contact center’s core systems, and take intelligent action in real time. With rules in place, the intelligent personal assistant will use the data gathered to trigger actions that support enhanced productivity and engagement for individuals and business. Some examples could include alerts sent directly to agents who exceed time thresholds and automatically scheduling development classes or coaching during optimal times, based upon need and call volume.

What is real time management?

In most call centers, management teams spend a lot of time researching, managing, and remediating adherence exceptions. Call center automation can handle these exceptions as they occur instead of later. Essential benefits of real-time management include saving manual effort, enhancing productivity, and offering staff and customers a better experience. Real-time call center management works by monitoring the data center 24-7, including the current agent state. Agents receive real-time alerts to help them improve performance and stay on schedule. Employees enjoy improved productivity and work satisfaction. At the same time, businesses save money that they formerly wasted on low productivity and manual efforts.
