Why You Need Proactive Outbound Forecasting & Scheduling

Customer expectations continue to rise as we head into the latter half of 2023. Contact centers play a pivotal role in ensuring organizations are meeting those expectations. Focusing operations solely on inbound activity can lead to a missed opportunity in delivering the most value to your customers. Eric Keller, senior research director at Gartner, states that “receiving proactive outreach leads to a 9% increase in a customer’s value enhancement score.” But planning for outbound activity is very different than inbound. When planning proactive outreach, traditional inbound planning algorithms will not produce accurate staff requirements to improve connects or right-party connects. Contact center leaders need to have the right outbound-optimized tools within their workforce management solution to drive high customer value but also reduce costly compliance risk from dead air and slower dialing due to understaffing.

Learn about the value of a workforce management platform with powerful outbound capabilities and how it helps contact center leaders deliver high customer value, reduces compliance risk from dead air and increases operational efficiency.

Thinking Differently About Attrition

Employee turnover is often viewed as a negative phenomenon in the business world. Managers and owners see high employee turnover as a sign of instability and a drain on company resources. Between onboarding, downtime, cross training and team building exercises, most companies invest tremendous resources after hiring. But employee turnover can actually be a sign of a healthy and dynamic company culture. Organizations that value growth and advancement may empower and even encourage their employees to leave their current role for a better opportunity elsewhere. Planned turnover also suggests that the organization itself values employees that pursue their career and personal goals. This can lead to a more motivated and engaged workforce, as employees feel that their contributions are valued and that they have a future, no matter where they end up.

Employee turnover can usher in fresh perspectives and new ideas. When new employees join a company, they bring with them different experiences, skillsets and ways of thinking. This often leads to innovation and creativity, as employees collaborate and share knowledge. Embracing employee turnover and actively seeking out diverse talent can foster a culture of learning and growth...

Technology-Driven Compliance in the Call Center: A Well-Regulated Workforce

Once a catalyst for change in the call center, technology is now THE change in the call center. The integration of advanced technological solutions has revolutionized the way call centers now approach and ensure compliance. In other words, new platforms are designed to facilitate compliance.
