Frontline Managers in Driving Productivity and Growth"


STUDY OVERVIEW

All too often call center benchmarking and best practice initiatives focus exclusively on call center representatives while overlooking the role of frontline managers in contributing to overall operational excellence. Call center performance - whether service, sales or a combination of both – can only be optimized with constant and active supervision, support, and coaching from experienced frontline managers. This benchmarking and best practice study seeks to better understand the activities and responsibilities of call center managers in high performing call centers.

Note: For the purposes of this study call center managers will be defined as “frontline managers” or "supervisors” that plan, develop, manage, implement, and coordinate the activities of call center representatives on a daily basis.
