By David Sims, TMCnet Contributing Editor


A webinar entitled “2011: What Every Contact Center Should Know, and How to Plan for It” will be presented on Thursday, Jan. 17, at 11:30 a.m. ET.


Contact center technology, as well as the dynamics of delivering quality service, “is changing at a rapid pace,” event organizers say, adding that “the accelerated adoption of cloud-based tools, the incorporation of social media into the multi-channel mix, the need to capture the voice of the customer, new methods of measuring agent effectiveness…what will change in 2011 and how can you be ready?”

During the live Web event, Forrester (News - Alert) Research principal analyst, Art Schoeller, and Interactive Intelligence senior vice president, Joe Staples will discuss these topics. The purpose of the event, organizers say, is to “help you be ready to take the best advantage of the upcoming year and the contribution your contact center can make to the success of your business.”

Following the Web presentation, there will be a Q&A, where Schoeller and Staples (News - Alert) will be joined by industry veterans Blair Pleasant, president and principal analyst of COMMfusion and a co-founder of ucstrategies.com; Sheila McGee-Smith, founder of McGee-Smith Analytics; and Don Van Doren, founder and president of Vanguard Communications.
