INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev., May 29, 2019 (Newswire.com) - MetricNet, the global leader in contact center benchmarking, is pleased to announce that, for the third consecutive year, Jeff Rumburg, Managing Partner of MetricNet, has been selected as a speaker at ICMI Contact Center Connections 2019, formerly known as ICMI Contact Center Demo, in Chicago, Illinois. The International Customer Management Institute (ICMI), the authority on contact center excellence, invited Mr. Rumburg to present in two major tracks at the conference, including “Master Your Metrics” and “Supercharge Your Strategy.” There were hundreds of speaker proposal submissions for ICMI Contact Center Connections 2019, making the selection process very difficult and highly competitive.
For those interested in attending, ICMI Contact Center Connections 2019 will take place October 28-30, 2019 at the Hyatt Regency in Chicago, Illinois. To learn more about the event and to register, please visit: ICMI.com/Contact-Center-Connections.
Mr. Rumburg will be presenting Session 101: Are Your Performance Targets on Target?, Session 603: From Good to Great in 9 Months: Kinecta Credit Union's Success Journey [CASE STUDY], and he has also been selected to participate in a panel discussion in Session 301: Ask the Experts: Mastering Your Metrics.
In the Master Your Metrics track, he will share a case study from one of the largest insurance companies in the world on how performance targets transformed both the culture and performance of their contact center. In the Supercharge Your Strategy track, Mr. Rumburg will share a case study from one of the nation's most successful credit unions on how they reduced handle time by 40 seconds, increased their IVR containment rate by 12 percentage points, reduced cost per contact by nearly 25%, and increased member satisfaction to the best in the industry!
“Setting performance targets is crucial for managing and measuring contact center performance, but fewer than 50% of contact centers have assigned performance targets for their KPIs,” said Jeff Rumburg. “In Session 101, I will provide a downloadable template and industry benchmarks for FCR, cost per contact, customer satisfaction and service levels. Attendees at this interactive workshop will leave with a unique set of performance targets for their contact centers based on industry benchmarks!”
