Relying on unstructured data and assumptions has always been an unsuccessful strategy.

The digital age has pushed today’s customers into an era of immediacy. This immediacy is one of the top reasons that live chat is imperative for any kind of business.

There are a lot of myths about Servant Leadership and we are going to debunk them in this podcast.

Contact Centers have no choice but to adopt the latest technology to stay relevant to serve the best customer experience in the changing world. From agents simply answering customer phone calls to managing a multitude of different customer contact channels, such as live chat, keeping track of social media messaging, etc., omnichannel customer support has become the new norm. While nearly every company says that keeping the customer experience (CX) on the top of any business strategy is key to maximizing growth, it’s certainly no longer the only important factor. In recent years, it has become more widely known, understood and accepted that higher employee engagement correlates to elevated customer satisfaction and creates value for business. In this podcast, Etech’s Sr. Vice President of Operational Excellence, David Carrizales, looked back at how the upheaval of the past years has impacted contact centers; how prepared they were for such rapid change; how they managed to keep operations running to varying degrees of success; how they met and overcame new challenges and made the best of the opportunities; how the hybrid workforce model is the future of the contact center industry; and what impact it can have on the contact center operations. Find out all the answers in this super value packed podcast hosted by Etech’s Dean of Global Leadership Development, Melissa Wood.

What is the biggest resource of your organization? Undoubtedly, your people! When your own people feel empowered at the workplace, it results into great job performance, job satisfaction, strong commitment to the organization, and the biggest of all increase in employee retention. Employee empowerment is all about supporting, providing guidance and making them feel a sense of belonging. It ensures the consistent growth of an employee. When you take care of your employees, they take care of your customers. As much as it is important to know what your customers wants, it is equally important to understand what your employees need. The feedback from your employees is the gold data that will help you serve better. An empowered and satisfied employee is a proven key for seamless customer experience and brand success.

In this podcast, Etech’s Chief Security Officer, Ronnie Mize explains how to ensure Data Privacy and Data Security in the Contact Center. Securing your customer’s data is important for many reasons: Your business depends on it and if your organization doesn’t take the necessary steps to protect customer data, you’ll be vulnerable to data security breaches, which could lead to trouble for your organization in the form of such things as customer complaints, fines, lawsuits, and more. With the rapid increase in cybercrime rates, protecting customer data has become more important. Contact Centers have more power to protect customer data than they think. Almost any piece of data that you collect and store from your customers is something that a cybercriminal might find valuable and can misuse the information. This is why your organization needs to take extra precautions to protect your customer’s data. It’s too crucial to leave data protection up to the tools and processes you use as it is prone to a data security breach. Customers trust you with their most confidential data, from credit cards to Social Security information, and it’s your responsibility to keep their data safe and secure. Tune in to this podcast to help yourself learn how to ensure Data Privacy and Data Security in the Contact Center.
