Listen "That’s Not My Name featuring Afshan Kinder"
Episode Synopsis
Despite barely touching the top 40 charts in the US, I’m willing to bet you’ve heard this debut single of the British duo, the Ting Tings. Over the past decade and a half, it’s been used in TV episodes, fashion shows, movies, viral TikTok videos, and commercials. It evokes the feeling of invisibility when your name is forgotten or mispronounced. While Afshan Kinder and I set out to have a conversation about the next generation of skills required for successfully leading in contact centers, we also touched on a conversation about cultural identity, what’s in a name, and the desire to feel accepted. We discuss: • What’s in a Name?• The role of AI in Customer Service• Building Critical Thinking Skills• Ensuring the Emotional Well-Being of Agents• The Future of Contact Centers• Investing in Leadership Development• Community Engagement Connect with Afshan on LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/ank7555/ Agent Performance KPIs article – https://www.callcentrehelper.com/agent-performance-metrics-excellence-232117.htmMusic courtesy of Big Red Horse – https://bigredhorseband.com/ Brought to you by Happitu – https://happitu.com/
