Nowadays, the business world is buzzing with words like "great resignation" and "digital transformation". While such changes profoundly affect people’s lives and careers, contact center agents are far from being threatened. The human element still plays a crucial role in contact center management. How can businesses empower their people to deliver top-notch service in an ever-changing and complex environment?
In today’s episode, Amelia talks with Omer Minkara about why the great resignation is relevant to contact centers, how the transformation between the digital and human elements works, and in what ways contact centers are solving the challenge of agent attrition.

03:35 - "The perception is that, as digital becomes more pervasive, companies may be thinking that agents are not as important as last year or maybe a decade ago. And that's completely inaccurate. What we are seeing today is a lot of those emerging digital channels or channels that are increasing in traffic, they also have agent involvement." - Omer Minkara
