ICMI ANNOUNCES NEW MONITORING STUDY, 2000 WEB-BASED SEMINAR SERIES AND "THE CONNECTED CALL CENTER" Annapolis, MD, January 14, 2000 - Incoming Calls Management Institute (ICMI) announces the publication of a focused study on call center monitoring practices and policies; launch of a new Web-Based Seminar Series; and the upcoming book by Brad Cleveland and Leslie Harps, "The Connected Call Center: An Executive Guide to Winning Loyal Customers in the Networked Economy" in Spring 2000. The Monitoring Study Final Report provides the latest information on how organizations are monitoring, why they monitor and what they plan for the future. The study, available to the press at no charge, covers methods, types of transactions, objectives, time spent on various activities, how and when feedback is given, and more. One key finding identified that while the majority of organizations surveyed still use monitoring to evaluate agent performance and training needs, 40% are expanding their monitoring objectives to include external factors like identifying customer needs and expectations. The detailed report with charts and tables highlighting key data and written comments from the survey participants also includes a 20-page booklet on "Monitoring and Coaching: Ensuring Quality and Effective Agent Evaluation and Feedback." A total of 204 call center managers working in national and international corporations in a wide variety of industries participated in the monitoring survey, representing a 23% return rate. Ninety percent of the call centers participating in the survey monitor agents. The reports is available at Call Center 2000 in Dallas and at www.callcentercatalog.com. |
