10 Examples of Smart Goals
For Call Center Agents
9. Improve Assessing and Measuring
Your Company’s Data
If you’ve been taking the same approach
to assessing your data for more than a
few years, there’s a high likelihood that
you’re using methods and technology that
is slowing you down, or even worse, not
painting the entire picture of how your
call center is improving. Revisiting your
values, mission, and goals will help you
reorient yourself and your team to what is
important to pay attention to, especially
when considering which examples of
SMART goals for call center agents you’d
like to implement. This is also a good time
to audit your analytics or QA software to
ensure that you are getting the data you
need in an efcient manner and without a
bunch of fuss.
10. Create a More Human Experience
for Your Customers
Last on our list of examples of SMART
goals for call center agents is a goal that’s
not quite as cut and dry to calculate.
Your customers love the convenience
of technology but, like many people, are
craving a real connection during their
day-to-day lives, especially after so many
aspects of our lives have gone online.
Creating a more personalized experience
for your customers might not meet the “M”
part of SMART very easily with a concise
data point, but there are communication
channels that could certainly increase
the likelihood of customers feeling like
they received a personalized experience,
such as video chat. Other ways to provide
that personalized experience is through
designing a seamless user experience from
end to end when they come to your website
or splash page. Pay attention to feedback
around these strategies in your customer
service satisfaction surveys. (Bonus:
providing your agents with a personalized
human experience will pay dividends in
illustrating the value of this strategy.)
