Listen "Welcome Back featuring Erica Marois"
Episode Synopsis
John Sebastian is probably best known for his time with the ‘60s band, The Lovin’s Spoonful. But in 1976, he scored a #1 hit with Welcome Back, the theme song to Welcome Back, Kotter. A sitcom about a wise-cracking teacher who has returned to his high school alma-mater to teach a remedial class of students, Welcome Back, Kotter featured a group of students who are viewed by most as misfits. But they are also their own close-knit little community. As John Travolta’s Vinnie Barbarino puts in the pilot episode, “This is my place. And these, these are my people.”That feeling of community that drew Gabe Kotter back to James Buchanan High School isn’t all that different than the feeling that drew Erica Marois back to ICMI. After several years away from the contact center industry, Informa, the parent company of ICMI and HDI among others, asked her to come back to the community she always knew was home. • The Complexities of the Grocery Industry• The Importance of Community in Contact Centers• Getting Reacquainted with the Contact Center Industry• The Evolution of Work-from-Home Dynamics• Fostering Community Engagement and Connection• The Convergence of IT Support and Customer Experience• Innovative Community Engagement InitiativesConnect with Erica on LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericastrother/ Reach out to Erica via email: [email protected] Music courtesy of Big Red Horse – https://bigredhorseband.com/ Brought to you by Happitu – https://happitu.com/
