First, we need to understand that what got us here (quantitative metrics, locked forecasts, echo chamber quality assurance and the illusion of Risk/Reward), will not take to where we want to go. This point and the futility or calibrating a 5 to 6 on a 10-point scale are why most quality programs actually offer no insight into actual quality.

QA primarily evaluates agent performance and provides information for coaching. Whether we use the information to coach and manage agent performance or for broader decision-making?—?unreliable It is often unclear what direct effects QA has on higher revenues, better business performance, and other financial metrics.

Consider metrics such as average speed of answer, abandon rate, utilization, talk times, first call resolution, etc. It is also worth noting that it’s best to compare the formulas that make up each metric. You want to ensure alignment so there aren’t any potential issues down the line. Can the outsourcer handle that?

It would be easy to jump into that meeting and start coming up with questions for a quality form and assigning point values and such, but I prefer to start with a couple questions to get to know them better. At best, you’ll coach agents on a bunch of one-off issues but never see the greater impact of that coaching.

While we’d like to think this quality coaching session holds some special transformational power, what’s more likely is that the eyes of both the coach and the agent go straight to the score and all opportunity to help that agent improve at their job is lost. Track performance at the individual question level.

Putting in the time to coach and train your team ensures you stop bad agent habits in their tracks. With so much to do, it’s tough to find the headspace, let alone the time, to think through how to coach your agents regularly. Agent scorecards are feedback tools to help you put intention behind your coaching moments.
