When Covid Hits Home in Your Contact Center- Perceptions, Reality, and Mandates
This episode is a little different than what we normally do, much more personal. 10 days before recording this, I tested positive for covid, this at a time when Covid has hit our Expivia contact center family petty hard, much harder than in 2020.
I want to give you my perspective on how I dealt with this and how it changed my perception of my WFH agents and my thought process on dealing with agents, even WFH agents that test positive. This was a big wake-up call for me.
I also want to talk through the vaccine mandate that will be coming into play for many of us the first week of January, how we are dealing with team members that don't want to get vaccinated, policies that we are having to put in place, and just overall how we are dealing with the mandate.

My Contact Center Employees Ask Me Anything
I am always thinking about how can my contact center be different? How can we have better quality, how can we as management engage our employees better?
One of the thoughts that I had when I was out sick with Covid, was doing a Reddit style Ask Me Anything (AMA) and having all the employees do just that, and me anything they want.
It was AWESOME!
So many times we just assume that people understand why we do what we do, why this policy is in effect, why we don't allow that. If we dont explain then may times there is the assumpltion of "thats just how it's always been done" or " they just want to be mean", or even "that makes no sense!"
This allowed me to explain questions, policies, procedures, and topics that I did t realize needed to be discussed in more depth. It was a great experience and really enhanced our corporate communication culture.
