How to Not Weaponize Metrics with Ali Joseph

Ali Joseph is the Founder of Savvy Service Pro and has over 15 years of contact center experience. On this episode she dives deep into operations and her specific Perform Framework that helps leaders set KPIs and improve agent performance. Step 1: Prioritize Metrics Identify which metrics you should measure that will drive growth/impact the company. Just because you've always been measuring CSAT scores doesn't mean you should keep doing it :) Step 2: Focus on Development Sponsorship versus mentorship mentality. Leaders need to build different types of structures to help agents progress in their careers. But most importantly... do NOT weaponize metrics with your agents.

Agent Attrition with Jerry Ellis

Jerry Ellis, a call center guru, believes that agent attrition is a foundational KPI that is often glossed over. It's just baked into your numbers, not many companies try to implement changes to improve attrition rates. But Jerry believes there is one thing that can drastically change this KPI. That's Engagement. Take the long way to the break room. Take extra time each week to connect one-on-one via Zoom/Teams if virtual. If you can provide a good work environment and engage with agents, then you don't need to be the highest-paying call center. This isn't just Jerry's opinion, though. He shares studies & results that back up his claims.

Fatal Flaws in Tech Solutions with Scott Hamilton

Scott Hamilton, CEO of ARM Tech Advisors, joins us on The KPI podcast for the first episode of season 3! And we're talking fatal flaws in tech solutions. But first, you have to address the people and process aspects of the business. Some great advice from Scott: 1) The way companies dive into voice analytics with technology is flawed. The words or phrases that companies choose to search for are far too generic. And frankly, people spend too much time thinking about this. There is always a new way to say things. When you search for yesterday's phrases, you'll miss tomorrow's. 2) The vast majority of companies use technology but still have an entire team doing manual processes. They aren't ready to fully embrace what technology can do for them. Mostly because it takes work to get there.
