Wanda's Thoughts
Wanda is frequently asked to share her thoughts about
employees, training or the contact center industry. Here are just a few
thoughts that she’s been known to offer:
"Maximizing the value of a company's multi-million dollar brand rests
largely in operations. The message is reinforced, diluted or ignored by
the frontline at the moment of customer interaction. In other words, it's
either money down the drain or money in the bank."
"Your frontline holds the customer in the palm of their hands every time they interact. You can be the guide that helps agents make each interaction a meaningful exchange."
"NetReps need to know when to possess the nuances of netiquette and emoticons and know when to avoid it. "
"The biggest mistake I see is not involving staff in the decisions
that will most affect them. For example, when contact centers decide to
monitor their reps' interactions, managers will often establish a monitoring
evaluation form without consulting the frontline on what they believe satisfies
customers. Lack of rep involvement leads to lack of morale and an erosion
of respect for management."
“Managing people and interacting with customers is simple if you
apply universal life principles (guiding
interaction principles) such as:
*keep your promises *results matter *treat others the way you want to be treated *listen
if you want to be heard *pay attention to the means, not just the
ends *look beneath and beyond *you’ll never know if you
don’t ask *respect the hand *dot your I’s and cross
your t’s *follow your heart.”
