Service Reminder

NCSA Central Florida Chapter’s July Virtual EventNCSA's Central Florida Chapter (NCSACFL) held a lunch & learn Zoom on July 28 to discuss "The New World of Customer Service Excellence: Remote Hiring, Training & Retaining." Here are just a few of the best practices shared: Hiring: Engage early and often. Manage the candidates throughout the process. Once hired, maintain frequent communications with new hires via phone, email, text and chat. Provide contact info so new hires know who they can reach out to. Training: Leverage your Learning Management System. Combine assigned modules and self-paced content to complement instructor-led training, manage training schedules, and engage trainees in different time zones. Again, communication is critical. Blend one-on-one conversations, small group breakouts, start/end of day huddles, etc. Retaining: To mitigate early fallout, consider extending the "nesting period," or transitioning successful in-office agents to work from home. Create more opportunities to connect with remote agents—such as trivia nite, monthly bingo, "Who is this baby?" photo game. If budget permits, a personalized gift sent to the agent's home is well worth the effort. The NCSACFL will be offering more great value-add content in the coming months, including tours of the Orange County Clerk of Courts (8/18) and Universal Orlando Resort (9/15), as well as their annual Circle of Excellence banquet (10/6). Also in the works are some charitable endeavors with Covenant House and United Against Poverty. |
