Global Technical Support Contact Centre – increase in Customer Satisfaction and Agent Motivation

Our Client provides technical support services across the world including the U.S., Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia from its two Asia-based Contact Centres.

The challenge was to standardize and improve communication skills across the Frontline in both Centres as well as enhance performance management techniques for management. At the same time, it was important to recognize cultural differences in service expectations and delivery.

To meet the challenge, OmniTouch designed and delivered a comprehensive curriculum that was rolled out simultaneously across Asia with an initial focus on the senior level management and “roll down” to the Frontline.

The curriculum balanced critical Contact Centre operations knowledge with powerful skills to improve Customer satisfaction.

Over a period of one year, our Client enrolled their entire management team of more than 45 senior managers and 300 Frontline Agents with demonstrated increases in Customer Satisfaction and improved Agent motivation.
