CS Peer GroupCX Measurement SIGEvent Calendar
The Customer Service Peer Group offers collaborative learning opportunities to compare and share expertise with members from organizations of similar business models through presentations, peer-to-peer discussion, and case-study examples.
Onboarding and training are the first opportunities you get to truly cement the foundation of your culture with your new customer care team members. The investment in this practice, or lack thereof, can have implications on how well cared for your team feels and the experience that then carries forward to your customers.
New hires tend to be highly engaged, what the situational leadership model denotes as "unable, but confident or willing". How do you leverage that engagement, that willingness and confidence, to align your new customer care team members with your organizations mission, and help them build the abilities needed to achieve it? Success relies on more than technology, there is a balance that must exist between the knowledge being presented, and the way it is presented. The onboarding process must instill understanding and clarity about not just their own role and responsibilities, but those they will work closest within the organization. What expectations should they have for their manager, mentor, and peers now and going forward.
This is not an easy task but is arguably one of the most important. Each new customer care team member has their own unique experiences, learning style, skill sets and motivators which means flexibility in the process is not just expected, but necessary. This can further exaggerate the difficulty of this process, but the payoff is a team that believes in what they do, understands the value of their work, brings unique insights to your company, and follows your lead, putting a priority on working with those who are different from themselves. That is an asset that only increases in value over time.
Join us to learn from the experiences of others and share your experiences with your peers! Together we can improve the onboarding and training experiences in each of our organizations whether you train in person or in virtual. We look forward to learning together with you!
