| contact center performance management: Practical Contact Center Collaboration Ken Burnett, 2011-05-10 |
| contact center performance management: Performance Management Im Call Center Marco Bucher, 2009-08 In den vergangenen Jahren haben Call Center in der Wirtschaft zunehmend an Bedeutung gewonnen. Neben der rasanten Entwicklung der Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologie sind hierf r vor allem der versch rfte Wettbewerbsdruck und die gestiegenen Erwartungen der Kunden entscheidend. Call Center stellen ein wirkungsvolles Instrument dar, um auf ver nderte Marktsituationen und auf gestiegene Kundenanforderungen angemessen zu reagieren. Dabei werden Call Center von den Unternehmen nicht nur mit dem Ziel der Kosteneinsparung eingerichtet oder genutzt, sondern auch, um ihre Kundenorientierung zu erh hen, bzw. ihre Servicequalit t zu verbessern. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird untersucht, inwiefern die vorherrschende Arbeitsorganisation in Call Centern geeignet ist, die Call Center-Ziele zu erreichen. Des Weiteren werden Schwachstellen der g ngigen Kennzahlen zur Steuerung der Call Center aufgedeckt. Dazu werden die Determinanten der Kundenzufriedenheit genauer untersucht. Zudem wird die Erfassung und Kontrolle der Mitarbeiterleistung hinsichtlich ihres Beitrags zur Erreichung der Call Center-Ziele analysiert. Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist es, auf Basis der herausgearbeiteten Problemfelder in Call Centern, Handlungsalternativen, Instrumente und Massnahmen zur Steigerung der Effizienz und der Servicequalit t aufzuzeigen. |
| contact center performance management: Performance Management im Call Center: Wie lassen sich Effizienz und Servicequalität steigern? Marco Bucher, 2009-04-24 Inhaltsangabe:Einleitung: Guten Tag, was kann ich für Sie tun? Diese oder ähnliche Begrüßungsformeln hören Menschen, wenn sie in ein Call Center anrufen. Ob bei Bestellungen, bei der Nachfrage nach Informationen oder bei Reklamationen: in verschiedenen Alltagssituationen treten Kunden über das Call Center in Kontakt mit dem Unternehmen. Call Center sind Organisationseinheiten, in denen sich die Mitarbeiter (sog. Call Center-Agenten) hauptsächlich auf den telefonischen Kontakt mit Kunden, Interessenten und anderen Geschäftspartnern konzentrieren. Die Call Center gewinnen in der Wirtschaft immer mehr an Bedeutung und haben sich in den letzten Jahren zu einem festen Bestandteil betrieblicher Servicekonzepte entwickelt. Nebst der rasanten Entwicklung der Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologie sind hierfür vor allem ein verschärfter Wettbewerbsdruck und die gestiegenen Erwartungen der Kunden entscheidend. Globalisierung und Internationalisierung der Märkte führen dazu, dass immer neue Wettbewerber mit vergleichbaren Produkten und Dienstleistungen auf den Markt drängen. Darüber hinaus sind die Kunden heutzutage über Produkte und Dienstleistungen besser informiert. Dadurch, dass viele Produkte hinsichtlich technischer Ausstattung und Qualität immer ähnlicher und damit aus Kundensicht austauschbar werden, berücksichtigen die Kunden immer stärker, welchen Service ein Unternehmen bietet. Dies hat zur Folge, dass auch die Erwartungen an eine persönliche Betreuung und einen individuellen Service zunehmen. So sind auch die Ansprüche der Kunden an die Qualität der Call Center-Leistungen in den letzten Jahren kontinuierlich angestiegen. Trotz der hohen Erwartungen zeigt sich in der Realität jedoch häufig ein anderes Bild. So stellt aus Kundensicht die telefonische Erreichbarkeit mit akzeptablen Wartezeiten bereits ein zentrales Problem dar. Die Call Center-Agenten gelten bei vielen Kunden als unfreundlich, unmotiviert und inkompetent. Oftmals suchen die Kunden vergeblich nach einem kompetenten Ansprechpartner. Es stellt sich somit die Frage: Wie lassen sich Effizienz und Servicequalität im Call Center steigern? In dieser Arbeit wird erstens der Frage nachgegangen, inwieweit die vorherrschende Arbeitsorganisation in Call Centern als neue Form der Taylorisierung betrachtet werden kann. Weiterhin soll analysiert werden, wie weit sich mit der vorherrschenden Arbeitsorganisation die Erwartungen der Kunden erfüllen und die Ziele der Unternehmen erreichen [...] |

| contact center performance management: Next Generation Performance Management Alan L. Colquitt, 2017-08-01 There is no HR-related topic more popular in the business press than performance management (PM). There has been an explosion in writing on this topic in the past 5 years, condemning it as a failure and calling for fundamental change. The vast majority of organizations use the same basic process which I call “Last Generation Performance Management” or PM 1.0 for short. Despite widespread agreement that PM 1.0 is failing, few companies have abandoned it or made fundamental changes to it. While everyone agrees it is broken, few agree on how to fix it. Companies continue to tinker with their systems, making incremental changes every few years with no lasting improvement in effectiveness. Employees continue to achieve amazing things in organizations every day, despite this process not because of it. Nothing has worked because organizations, business leaders and HR professionals focus on PM practices instead of the fundamental purpose of PM and the paradigms, assumptions, and beliefs that underlie the practices. Companies ask their performance management process to do too many things and it fails at all of them as a result. At the foundation of PM 1.0 practices is the ideology of a meritocracy and paradigms rooted in standard economic and psychological theories. While these theories were adequate explanations for motivation and behavior in the 19th and 20th centuries, they fail to account for the increasingly complex nature of organizations and their environments today. Despite the ineffectiveness of PM 1.0, there are powerful forces holding it in place. Information on rigorous, evidence-based recommendations is crowded out by benchmarking information, case studies of high-profile companies, and other propaganda coming from HR think tanks and consultants. Business leaders and HR professionals learn about common practices not effective practices. This book confronts the traditional dogma, paradigms, and practices of PM 1.0 and holds them up to the bright light of scientific scrutiny. It encourages HR professionals and business leaders to abandon PM 1.0 and it offers up a more appropriate purpose for PM, alternative paradigms to guide them and practical solutions that are better supported by scientific research, referred to as “Next Generation Performance Management” or PM 2.0 for short. |

| contact center performance management: How to Take Action for Successful Performance Management Falconer Mitchell, Hanne Nørreklit, 2019-08-27 This book is intended for practitioners, students, and researchers who are interested in designing, using, assessing, and researching performance management systems. Managerial personnel involved in such activity will hold many beliefs about how their organization functions. This text uses the philosophy of pragmatic constructivism to show how managerial beliefs that underlie action can be made explicit and so facilitate their assessment and improvement. This involves recognizing and integrating the four dimensions (facts, possibilities, values, and communication) that represent how managers relate to the reality in which they operate. When managerial beliefs are based on an accurate representation of reality, they are more likely to be successful. Problems occur where reality is misrepresented in managerial beliefs. This is especially so in performance management, as the book illustrates using real-world examples. Specific topics addressed include planning and decision making, performance management of investment center managers, strategic performance management, and operational performance management. |
