Workforce optimization (WFO) is hot as it enables contact centers—and increasingly back offices—get more productivity from labor by using these resources that represent some 70 percent of operating costs more efficiently. Resources that depending how they are used can make, or break, customer relationships and sales. In today’s economy having the right people at the right time who can meet and better yet exceed customers’ expectation are the keys to survival, and success.


Verint has long been a leading-edge WFO solutions provider, whose staff and consultants know the contact center sector. And it is sharing that expertise in a series of online and live industry events commencing this fall. It is also kicking off its “Intelligence in Action Creative Practices” seminar series that will take place in cities throughout the U.S. and Canada.  Topics will range from what’s hot in contact center and enterprise workforce WFO technology, market trends and best practices, to key focus areas and investment priorities leading into 2011 and beyond.  

Here are the events:

“Before the Buzz--Using MultiChannel Customer Interactions to Get Ahead”

September 23; 1 pm ET

Getting ahead of customer expectations, and even consumer reaction to doing business with an organization, can present both great challenges and opportunities. Coupled with the breadth of multichannel service and communications media, it begs the question: “How well are you equipped to anticipate, analyze, and act on customers’ requirements and their experiences with your organization?”  During this webcast, Verint’s (News - Alert) Diego Lomanto, who is principal, solutions marketing, analytics, will explore the power of customer interaction analytics and how arming businesses with an “early internal warning system” can advance them from a reactive to proactive, customer-centric approach to sales, service, and deeper customer relationships.
