CX Industry Insight: Once AI is embedded, what’s now different about live assistance?

Martin Hill-Willson, Founder, Brainfood consultant

If we anticipate AI’s impact on contact strategy over the next few years we are looking at much reduced volumes that will still need routing to live assistance. Whatever remains unsuitable for self service should now better match the unique people skills that experienced advisors bring - whenever things get complex, emotional or just need the human touch. These are interactions with greater consequence and need the most capable and experienced to make the most of them. So in this world, what type of person should contact centres recruit? What’s the appropriate culture to nurture that talent? What are they now worth to an organisation? This keynote explores the new profile of advisors that will be emerging.

Moments Connected: Outcomes Achieved

Alexander Michael - Director of Consulting, Frost & Sullivan

CX improvement is a Top 3 driver behind IT investment, and new business models like XaaS emerge as a direct result of digital transformation. AI and robotic applications are really taking off, but human agents are increasingly important too, and organisations must empower them. IoT and the blending of the virtual and physical world create new CX delivery opportunities.
