Do we still need to do calibration sessions?

Skipping Calibration. Calibration keeps everyone who monitors and coaches consistent and fair. To calibrate is to gain consensus, as a team, on what a quality contact (phone call, email, or chat) sounds like, looks like, and feels like so that every evaluator is rating the calls/contacts the same way. Most companies skip calibration, but I don’t want you to make this mistake. Make sure you know how to calibrate, and that you schedule regular calibration meetings.

Where does quality calibration come into play? In a past article I wrote about the importance of a quality calibration process to ensure that everyone is aligned and scoring customer interactions the same way. My prefered method for calibration is where all attendees review and score customer interactions ahead of time. The calibration meeting then becomes a time where everyone comes together, compares results, and discusses how they differed.

With a quality tool, an interaction can be placed in the calibration queue, everyone reviews those prior to a calibration meeting, and then the team can come together and discuss the areas where their scoring differed. It’s an efficient way to calibrate multiple customer interactions in a timely manner.
