It's ironic how many companies strive for authentic customer interactions, yet their performance metrics often prioritize a standardized approach. This got me thinking: Do your metrics reflect what matters most to your customers? Are they empowering our agents to deliver exceptional experiences, or are they holding them back? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this. How do you ensure your metrics align with your customer service goals? #customerexperience #customerservice #contactcenter #metrics #leadership
From my experience, most metrics are not empowering the experience in the call center. They are operational heavy and the experience is unfortunately an after-thought.
Scripts can equal robotic behavior. Standards and guidelines can give guardrails but also allow for wiggle room.
Very true...

3moGreat post Blake Morgan. People perform how they are marked it all aspects of life. So if agents are given such strict guidelines, then they are going to become robotic. There’s nothing more frustrating than dealing with a customer service agent who can’t act beyond the script. Giving agents latitude to be more human will no doubt drive a better customer experience.
