Communication can prove challenging for sups and managers in the remote world. It can often be difficult to get an agent’s attention so making it is unclear if the agent is at their desk working. For example, the following scenario is not uncommon:
An agent shows offline in the Dialer
The WFM team notifies the agent they are showing offline and there is no acknowledgement of message received
The agent’s sup messages the agent with no reply
The sup calls the agent in Teams and there is no answer
The sup calls the agent's phone and there is no answer
Please carefully review this policy and adhere to the expectations outlined to avoid the above situation and prevent other issues that stem from poor communication. Below are the main methods of communication:
Teams chats
Teams meetings/calls
Rocket chats
CXP inbox
AIQ inbox
Personal inbox
Personal phone number
...
Watch your inbox and calendar for meetings added to your calendar and be prepared to attend on time.
If you are stuck on a call and will be late for a meeting, let your sup know via Teams chat.
If your supervisor calls, be prepared to answer.
