Some Final Thoughts
A small number of KPI’s – keep it simple
The 80/20 rule – Less is More!
Remember the KPI Hierarchy
Cost and Quality First
Followed by Agent Utilization and First Contact Resolution
All KPI’s are interconnected
Learn the underlying drivers of each KPI!
Think of the KPI’s as Levers that you Control
Pull the right levers, and you will achieve the desired outcomes!
