Did you know that 73% of contact center leaders expect the contact center to look very different post pandemic?
Calabrio surveyed 300 contact center professionals from a broad range of industries across the U.S. and U.K. to find out what the evolving world of work will look like in their organization.
We just released the results of that survey in our new report, The State of the Contact Center: Embracing the Evolving World of Work. Simply put—work life will never be the same again. For contact center managers, this is both an opportunity and a challenge.
Want to learn what this research means for your contact center? Watch our webinar where we invited leading industry analysts to discuss the results of our research —and answered your questions about how to lead in this "new normal."
The webinar explored:
- How the contact center has changed—permanently
- How the pandemic is driving a new customer experience mindset
- How the demand for contact center analytics drives new investments
- How workplace flexibility will evolve
