what is call center monitoring and why does it matter

Call center monitoring is a practice of listening to customer calls that take place in a call center in order to make sure customer concerns are handled quickly and efficiently. A call center is a centralized department in a company that handles incoming and outgoing client and prospect contacts.

 / The Football World Cup 2022 Edition














The Football World Cup (or Soccer World Cup if you’re a North American fan) is upon us, kicking off for the 22nd time in just under a week hosted by the nation of Qatar. Of particular note is England vs United States on Friday the 25th for a little EMEA office vs HQ rivalry.

Workplace bullying is a widespread problem. According to a Workplace Bullying Institute study, 79.3 million workers are affected by workplace bullying. 30% of respondents said they had been bullied, 19% said that witnessed it, and 13% said that they are currently being bullied.

Even worse, 65% of people said that the person bullying them was their boss — making it hard to report the problem.
