Here are some key takeaways

Employee experience is key to customer experience. Happy staff lead to happy customers.

AI is a powerful tool to enhance agent performance. It can automate tasks and provide real-time support, but it won't replace human agents.

Start small and focus on a specific goal when implementing AI. Identify a process that you want to improve and find an AI solution that can help.

Listen to your team members and empower them to make decisions. This will boost morale and improve overall call center performance.
