Contact Center Coaching 2.0 -Turning QA Insights into Agent Coaching Gold
Most QA programs score agents but don’t actually develop them—and that’s the problem. In this episode, we break down how to move beyond compliance-based QA and use real call insights to coach smarter, faster, and better.
You’ll learn:
✅ Why high QA scores don’t always mean high performance
✅ How to shift from traditional QA to coaching-driven QA
✅ The power of Auto QA tools like OttoQa.com for real-time coaching insights
✅ How micro-coaching leads to faster, more effective agent development
Stop grading agents and start developing them. Tune in and discover how to turn QA insights into coaching gold!
