Description
This book takes an in-depth look at the design and management of an inbound call center and its principle tool, the Automatic Call Distributor (ACD). The text outlines a coherent corporate philosophy that approaches the subject from all levels: the network, the equipment, personnel, and management reports. Considerable attention is given to the ongoing management of the call center, both for changing business trends and for disaster recovery.
