Conversation Reassignments Received by Agents is Increasing #
If a particular Agent is getting the most reassigned Conversation, you may need to take a close look at your current processes, training, and rules.
- Talk to the Agent and try to figure out why they are receiving more reassigned Conversations than others. Does the Agent have particular skills/knowledge that should be shared with other teams or Agents?
- Look into why Agents are reassigning Conversations in the first place. Is it because of escalations? Are the Conversations they are receiving too difficult so they are reassigning Conversations instead?
- Think about your staffing model. Are Agents reassigning Conversations because they are handling too many Conversations?
- Take a closer look at your reassignment processes to make sure they are still relevant and applicable.
