Interactions become more complicated• Requires complex training
in problem solving• Variations in skillsets for
different channels• AI/RTD for next-action
guidance
The role of the Employee shifts• Are they advocates for the
customer?• Requires better
performance scoring and metrics
• Are they allowed to take decisive action? Based on what data?
Engagement becomes key• Incent behavior based on
business outcomes• Gamification provides
mechanism for benchmarking, competition and identifying excellence

Employee Engagement is a Critical Strategy

Incentives• Skills-acquisition opportunities are a reward!• Gamification + automated learning = agent satisfaction
Tools for collaboration• Allow agents to reach into the enterprise for help, insight, answers
Analytics • When every customer is different, measuring success is harder and
more important to agent feedback
