Jim Iyoob on the Role of Quality in Customer Service:
“Quality’s not a score. It’s a behavior. And when you look at the behavior, and stop doing dinging agents for what they’re doing wrong, and telling them their score, and talk about effectiveness, and what’s in it for them, that’s the role of how you take that data, and which can bring us into really a data-driven culture.”
