  • Publication number: 20210304103
    Abstract: Systems and methods for measuring the effectiveness of an agent coaching program calculate a rate of change in a first Key Performance Indicator for a first agent in a first coaching program during a period of time; select a control group of agents in which agents in the control group of agents were not exposed to the first coaching program; calculate an average rate of change in the first Key Performance Indicator for the control group of agents during the period of time; and calculate a first coaching impact of the first coaching program on the first Key Performance Indicator for the first agent relative to the average rate of change in the first Key Performance Indicator for the control group of agents during the period of time.

  • Publication number: 20210256417
    Abstract: A system and method for creating input data to be used to train a conversational bot may include receiving a set of conversations, each conversation including sentences, classifying each sentence into a dialog act taken from a number of dialog acts, for each set of sentences classified into a dialog act, clustering the set of sentences into clusters based on the content (e.g. text) of the sentences, each cluster having a cluster name or label, and generating a language model based on the cluster labels. Slots may be identified in the sentences based in part on the dialog act classifications. A bot may be trained using data such as the slots, language model, and clusters.

  • Publication number: 20210097634
    Abstract: A system and method for selecting a training program from a plurality of training programs for a selected worker may include evaluating performance improvement of a plurality of workers who have taken training programs of the plurality of training programs, and associating a performance improvement grade to each of the workers for each of the training programs the worker has taken; selecting, in a worker database, workers that are similar to the selected worker; and selecting the training program for the selected worker based on the performance improvement grades associated with the similar workers for the plurality of training programs.

  • Publication number: 20210081873
    Abstract: A computerized method for automatically pointing on an influencer on a measured performance change for maximizing coaching utility is provided herein. The method may include: receiving one or more metrics from a user to construct a Key Performance Indicators (KPI); retrieving data related to one or more agents during a predefined period for the one or more metrics from one or more performance management databases; calculating a change in KPI; calculating an influence of each metric on the calculated change in KPI; calculating an influence of each agent on the calculated change in KPI; presenting to a user via a display unit: (i) the calculated change in KPI; (ii) influence of each metric on the calculated change in KPI; and (iii) influence of each agent on the calculated change in KPI, and based on a precalculated coaching effectiveness, suggesting a coaching approach to reach a predefined KPI goal.

  • Patent number: 10847136
    Abstract: Systems and methods for mapping a customer journey in an interactive voice response (IVR) system to a category from a categories list, build a directed graph based on one or more sample IVR customer journeys; generate a black list based on the directed graph; for a given customer journey: filter one or more non-informative menus from the plurality of available menus based on the black list; concatenate the respective associated menu prompt of each menu that was not filtered, and one or more user responses to one or more menu prompts from the series of interactions in the given customer journey, into a concatenated word string; calculate a similarity score between the concatenated word string and a category name of each category from the categories list; and map the given customer journey to the category whose category name produces the highest similarity score.

  • Publication number: 20200065831
    Abstract: A method and system for analyzing interactions (for example between a person and an organization) may include for a number of series of interactions (which may be termed journeys), each interaction represented by a channel and a reason, iterating over the series of interactions by selecting initial information including an interaction subset including one or more interactions, and if there is a set of interaction series among the series of interactions meeting certain conditions, adding an interaction to the interaction subset and determining in a recursive fashion if for the interaction subset, there is a subset among the set of interaction series meeting the conditions which also meet the conditions. Conditions may include a threshold average rating for the set of interaction series, and a threshold number of interaction series in which the interaction subset is found.
