How
to Design (or refine) a Quality Monitoring Program You Can Be
Proud of

Call
monitoring is one of the most important tools available to
contact center management for quality assurance. Focused,
effective and consistent quality monitoring has many benefits
including improved performance and productivity, increased
customer satisfaction, increased job satisfaction, and reduced
turnover.
BUT, most
contact centers fail to properly conceptualize, design, and
launch a solid quality monitoring program that reaps dramatic
results in improved performance and customer satisfaction.
In
fact, according to a 2007 Quality
Monitoring Study conducted by ICMI, only
55.8% of contact centers believe that their monitors are given
the time/resources they need to lead an effective quality
program. But this
doesn't have to be your story...

Next
class starts January 29, 2008
The
class will be very interactive.
Myra will be coaching you every step of the way, critiquing
your monitoring forms, offering advice on improving your
coaching skills, encouraging you along, and fine-tuning your
overall quality monitoring strategy.

will be 5-weeks long. It begins January 29th. Each week you
will receive an entire module/lesson along with Myra’s
commentary and assignments. We ask that you (working with your
team of supervisors/coaches/monitors) complete each assignment
and return it promptly. Myra will then comment on it and
return it to you, again all by email.
You're
probably wondering, can you and your team really learn
anything from an E-class?
People who
have taken Myra’s previous “distant learning programs”
accomplished everything from designing and launching a quality
monitoring program from scratch to holding calibration
meetings for the very first time, to getting agent buy-in, to
coaching effectively by using our proprietary 9 step model for
coaching call center agents.
Your
seminar has given me the tools to build {a} new incentive
program. I’m sure that my operators will appreciate
the scoring process as well as the incentives. I will
appreciate the opportunity to be a better coach.

What
is an e-class?
An e-class doesn't meet at a specific time. It is done 100% by
e-mail and allows you the freedom to hold discussions with
your team and complete projects when you make the time. The
best part about an e-class is that you get detailed coaching
from someone whose time you might not be able afford on an
hourly or daily basis.
Each
week you will receive a detailed lesson with
a pretty good amount of tasks and coaching that guarantees
that IF you follow the steps Myra outlines, you WILL get your
quality call monitoring program up and running quickly. Or, if
you already have a quality call monitoring program in place,
you’ll get valuable critiques to help you take it to the
next level. Click
to here to view an excerpt from a lesson. You'll notice
a high level of customization in this sample lesson.
Limited
to 34 people/companies.
Because of all of one-on-one attention you will receive from
Myra Golden in the way of feedback on your current or desired
quality monitoring program, critique, and getting your
questions answered, we have to limit this class to 34 people.
We expect this class to fill quickly.
I
truly appreciate the work you did in researching our company
and the information provided.

that encourage appropriate action follow-up.

Again,
there is a limit on the number of people allowed into the
program. Right now, we've opened up 2 small groups of 17. Once
those groups are filled, the program is closed until the next
group completes the program.
These
small groups usually fill up very fast. So, don't wait.
Register now.
Naturally,
as you might expect, there are a few reasonable
conditions:
1)
You must be willing and able to commit to completing Myra’s
pre-program questionnaire. This questionnaire will allow Myra
to customize your e-course and focus squarely on your needs
and challenges. If you’re not willing or able to invest the
time to complete this questionnaire, we’re sorry we cannot
help you at this time.
2)
You must get everyone on your team who is involved with
your quality monitoring and coaching process involved in this
course. If Myra were to conduct this intense training
onsite at your company, you'd have to agree in writing that
all team members will participate 100%. In order to be
effective, we need the same level of participation and commitment
from you in this e-course. You will be asked to hold weekly
meetings with your team based on Myra's assigned tasks.
3)
You must complete all of the coursework within 7 days of
receiving each “lesson”. Myra will ask a lot of you.
She’ll ask that you send us your current monitoring form,
she’ll give you instructions for how to set up your first
calibration session and ask that you actually hold a session.
She’ll ask that you record a “coaching” session between
one supervisor and one employee, and more. Because we’re
guaranteeing outcomes, we need to have your 100% participation
in the course.
So,
if this is going to be too much of a stretch for you, better
to pass for now.
However,
if you are eager and itching to make rapid strides in quality
call monitoring and coaching your agents to optimal
performance, in very short order, you need to enroll right
away for this opportunity to receive personal coaching from
Myra Golden.
Basically,
you get Myra on your team to get your quality call monitoring
program conceptualized, developed (or refined), and up and
running as soon as possible -- and to teach you the things you
need to know to make your monitoring program easily manageable
and effective.
Tuition
to enter the program: $800 if registered before
January 8th. After January 8, 2008 the tuition is $1200. Tuition covers all
people involved in monitoring and coaching in your company.
If
for any reason you are not 100% satisfied after your first
