Advice from a Call Center Geek‪!‬ Thomas Laird

Are you overwhelmed by the relentless push to overhaul your contact center with AI? Let's clear the air about the real impact of AI in this industry. 

My recent talks reveal a surprising fact: many companies are not rushing into AI as believed. In reality, few have a detailed plan or have started implementation.
Join me in a practical journey as we create a roadmap for incorporating technology thoughtfully in your contact center. 

Drawing from my latest engagements in Philadelphia and Miami, we'll focus on using what you already have efficiently and investing wisely, not hastily. 

We advocate a thoughtful approach to innovation, ensuring you adopt AI at a manageable pace, suited to your business needs. This discussion is about building a strong foundation for growth, stepping into AI with confidence and a well-defined strategy for success.

This podcast is based on the presentation I delivered in Miami at the "CX Under the Sun Event" to more than 100 CX professionals who are just beginning their journey with CX AI transformation.
During the presentation, I share my views on what is considered "real" regarding AI in the current market, what to be cautious about, and how to initiate AI integration within your organizations.
You won't find any unnecessary content or theoretical discussions here. It's all about the essential tools you should start exploring now and the reasons these tools need further development, regardless of what you might hear from AI technology providers.
