  Not in themselves complex
  N t i th      l         l
  Email is most prone to complexity
    Multiple interactions
    M lti l i t     ti
PREDICTABLE DOMAIN EXPERTS

definition
d fi iti

                       one     done
interactions
  May be seen as complex
High Volume; Low Variability
  Customer service
     Mostly non complex interactions
Low Volume; High Variability
  Knowledge workers
           g
  Triage
  Significantly more complex interactions
WHAT DID I DO TODAY?


Measure the interaction details
Has both simple and complex
interactions
i t    ti
Less well defined measurement
Complexity used as an excuse not to
measure
Less well defined processes
LOW VOLUME, HIGH VARIABILITY
AGENT WORK
COMPLEX INTERACTIONS

                  ?
THE COMMON THREAD
 HE OMMON HREAD
WHERE IS THE MYSTERY?


Complex interactions
  Understand what the agents are actually
  doing
  Understand what the process is
    For customer facing interactions
  Stop guessing!

STEP 3 – COMMUNICATE THE PROCESS


Train agents on each process step
Communicate the process to callers
  Set expectations after each step
FCR AND THE COMPLEX CUSTOMER INTERACTION



Each process has multiple steps
Agents should execute process with
each step ‘one and d

                       ’
STEP 4 – ELIMINATE VARIANCES

 Do
 D each step once and only once
        h             d l
 Address variances from optimal
 Be sure it makes customer and business
 sense.
STEP 5 - MEASURE TO CONFORMANCE
