Staffing and scheduling in a contact center are challenging tasks. Once you have a handle on the basics, there are still many other considerations that come into play. How do you manage non-phone activities? How big should your queue groups be? Should you utilize skills-based routing? What about multi site routing? How can you get agents to adhere to their schedules?

These questions and more will be answered in this insightful seminar. You’ll come away with a great understanding of:

  • How to incorporate non-phone activities to make scheduling most cost-effective
  • What size queue groups are best for your center
  • When is skills-based routing the right approach
  • How can multi site scheduling really work
  • How to develop a culture that encourages great adherence to schedule
