26 Agent CRM User Interface Challenges - Too many screens to navigate or too much information on one screen - Client Info not passed from IVR/web - Continual Pressure to minimize AHT/ACW Page - 26
27 Technology Solution 2 Speech Recognition Innovative Use Instead of pointing Speech recognition Technology at the Customer, Point it at the Agent. Benefits to Be Achieved Reduce AHT/ACW Improve Agent Performance - Improve Customer Sat on Problem Resolution - Improve Upsell/Cross Sell Success Improve Overall Agent Satisfaction Improved Agent Performance and Satisfaction PAGE - 27
28 Agent Speech Recognition Uses & Benefits Improved Navigation Instead of clicking through Multiple Screens agents can create verbal shortcuts to enable agents to quickly get to the screen they need.

31 Agent Communications tend to be Rigid and One-Way I Need to log into system to see shift changes and opportunities Management Communication is generally negative and focused on Scorecard misses. Timely Coaching & Training is Rare Talking about an issue days or weeks after it happened is not that helpful. Waiting For Supervisor Approval of Change Requests creates a lot of uncertainty and stress for me. Page - 31
32 Creating more flexible agent-friendly communications What s the best way to communicate with agents when they are outside the center? How can you make performance feedback, coaching and training more timely and relevant? How can you ensure agent communication is more balanced? How can you speed up change agent request approvals?

35 Real-World Challenge Speech Recognition Introduction AHT benefits are not achieved if agents don t use the technology - You can still handle a call without Speech-to-Text How do you avoid having to track yet one more metric? - Speech-to-text Utilization Speech-to-text Utilization is only an indirect metric for AHT/ACW performance - What about agents that can type as fast as they can talk? - How does the real-time administrator figure out where the real issues are? Page - 35
36 Real-World Use Case Active Performance Management Wireless Services Provider Process Identify Agents with Poor KPI s - High AHT and/or ACW Correlate Relevant Related Metrics - High AHT/ACW and Low Utilization of Agent Speech-to-Text Tool Generate Real-Time Alerts - To Agent (Should have used Tool) - To Supervisor (Coaching Opportunity) Generate Daily Custom Reports - Training Department (Training Effectiveness) - Management (AHT/ACW Trend Report) Improve Agent Communication Page - 36
