Solving the problem of turnover rate

Executive summary

Delaney is a Dublin-based call center working for a major car-hire company which employs 240 full-time and part-time agents.  Most agents are women in their mid- to late 20s, many of them fluent in Spanish, French or German.  As many call centers, Delaney has high levels of staff turnover.  The average length of service is only three years which has high cots in recruiting, selecting and training.  New agents are not as productive as experienced agents; also there are threats about the competitiveness of the Irish call-center industry.  Recently, some findings show that the levels of absenteeism in the company are high.  Also, according to the job satisfaction questionnaires given by the staffs, the result is not optimistic.  Lots of staffs report high levels of boredom and stress etc.  Our report is going to analyze the problem and give some useful advices.

Findings

Absenteeism

The Human Resources Department monitored absenteeism over a 12-month period.  From the findings, we can see the level of absenteeism in the company is high.  The average is seven days taken in sickness per agent each year.  According to the report, the most common causes are headaches and migraine, colds and flu, back problems and stress.  This level of absence may be causing delays in answering calls and is placing extra work and stress on colleagues.  Also, it will need to have cost in finding replacement staff to cover the absence and the uncertainty that absence can cause in future planning.  In the end, callers and our clients may become dissatisfied with the level of customer service which affects company profit.

Job Satisfaction

The staff was given a job satisfaction questionnaire to complete anonymously.  The results are not optimistic, staff report high levels of boredom and stress, also morale is low and many staff complain about an unfriendly workplace environment.  Besides this, agents and team leaders alike mentioned the pressure of workload.  For example, if a job can't be done in time or can't reach the targets, the agents may get a rude e-mail from their team leader which made an extremely bad affect about agents' emotion.  Because of the limited time for each caller, sometimes they can't decide, these situations may annoy the team leader which made the agents feel useless for the caller and gave those lots of pressure.  The agents can't get enough flexibility.  The majority of agents mentioned they are unhappy about call monitoring, because they hostile and feel suspicious about why calls are recorded.  These all indicates great potential effect to the company employee loyalty.

Recommendations

Establish core enterprise culture and create good culture atmosphere:

l Employees will be attracted to a unique corporate culture. They like to work in a harmonious, relaxing, impartial, aggressive and united atmosphere. If so, they will be happy and comfortable. No one will leave such a team.

l An excellent corporate culture can’t be established in one or two days. It needs to absorb the advantages and accumulate over a long period. Only in this way, can the corporate culture stand the trial and be valuable. So managers should try to create such an atmosphere.

Leaders should shape personality charm and improve their own management level:

l Never trust anyone who cannot look into your eyes. Working in a team with no trust, employees will feel uncomfortable.

l Treat different situations in a different way.

F As for the sickness absence, the enterprise can establish a sick leave bank management system. This means each employee will own a sick leave bank which has days limit, but they can enjoy paid time-off when they are using the bank. The employee will lose some salary for continued absence when the inventory becomes empty, unless he got serious disease which within the coverage of long-term disability insurance.

F As for the demotivation, for one thing, managers should often have a heart-to-heart talk with the employees to find out the real reason why they slack off, and try to help them solve the problem. For another, the enterprise should create a good corporate atmosphere, establish the enterprise culture and cultivate the employees’ Sense of identity and belonging. They can organize group activity such as quality-extended training and group tour.

l Don’t make rush promise. Once you have made a promise, you can’t let anyone down. If you break your promise, employees will not trust you anymore.

l Willingness to take responsibilities, especially for employees. If you put your mistake to your employees, you will lose the respect and trust of employees.

Provide each staff with a boarder opportunity and space of development:

l Establish and perfect the mechanism of competition. We should encourage employees to compete to get promoted.

l Provide ample training opportunities for staff. This can also enhance job satisfaction.

Provide the attractive remuneration:

l Willing to pay high salaries to cadre employees and staff in the important post. Only in this way, can you attract key employees. Once the key employees have drained, it will cause inestimable losses to enterprises.

l Establish a system of rewards and punishments. The enterprise must perfect the rules and regulations, establish an effective performance appraisal and fair salary distribution system. Rewarding the employees who fit the standard of attendance with cash, recognition, holiday, or something else can significantly reduce the absenteeism rate. And employees know that as long as the pay, there will be harvest.

Conclusion

This report concludes that Delaney Call Center has come out relevant ways of dealing with these urgent issues. Despite that the enterprise pay great attention on absence and pressure problem, and even work out some promotion mechanism to reduce the turnover rate, which will definitely take effects in some extent. But there is no denying that the job characteristic working in call center lacks of relaxed and pleasant flour, employees sit next to each other and keep constantly answering phones again and again, but in the long run, most of employees will get bored and will complain a lot no matter what welfares are offered. Even so, the enterprise should try best to improve the job satisfaction

Training Program for Smileco

Background
information: Last month, our company didn’t perform as well as usual. The
process of information-gathering system didn’t run smoothly. Of course, we
actually know that our department should be responsible for this. As a result
of this, our company decided to take training program for sales force.

 

1.    
First,
the aim of this training is to improve our sales techniques. At the same time,
making employees know how to operate the new information-gathering system is
important too.

2.    
Next,
it’s about how the training will be carried out. Therefore, here comes the most
important part of this training. We will hire professional teams to give
employees training courses. Because I know some managers even know nothing
about the new system after integration. So professional team may take on the
duty. In order to overcome the disadvantage of outsourcing training course, we
decide to arrange some managers to help them and supervise them.

3.    
Then, I
think we’d better choose intensive courses, the reason of which is that we must
make sure the effect of training could be shown immediately.

4.    
After
talking about the intensity, the next issue is about the system. AS I have said
before, we’ll introduce new data-collection system. I think it’s worthwhile. Because
we all know the importance of information for fast-moving consumer goods. 

5.    
About
the budget: I know it’s not all the sales force that need customer awareness
training. Consequently, we’ll separate my sales force into two parts according
to their performance. Having the better performance means they are not required
to attend the customer awareness training courses. This group can continue
their previous job content to make sure the orders from customs can be
completed in time. Obviously, the data-collecting system courses are for all
sales force.

6.    
Finally,
about the integration, on the one hand, the managers should know each other
first. If they can’t deal with cooperate relation properly, there will be more
and more problems. On the other hand, our department will hold several parties
for them to know each other. Our team spirit will be defined as cooperation.

The Training Program of Sales Team in SmileCo
The purposes of this training program are to increase our team spirit and enhance the professional proficiency.

● Priority: Maximising the impact of their face-to-face contact with customers.

● Our training program should be done by external training companies. Because they can provide with more objective suggestions and systematic training. What's more, they can overcome those negative influences brought by the internal personal relationships.

● It's better to choose short intensive courses within five days. Our courses include  saleing techniques, after-sales services, interpersonal communication and so on.

● Offering more training with the current system is what we will do as our system is already pretty sophisticated, and all we need to do is to make some slight adjustments.

● Since the budget is limited, we are going to select the best perfomers and the relative poor performers. The reason why we choose these staff to receive the customer awareness training is because when they finish the training courses, the best ones can teach other staff and the poor ones can improve themselves.

We can use the following strategies to decide whom should get the training:

1. According to their sales  perfomances.
2. Anoymous votes: the direct information about the candidates.
3. Feedback from regular customers.
4. Through our observation.

● When we meet a situation where two newly merged employees need to accelerate the integration:

1. We can arrange special missions for them with intention.

2. During the process, it would help to build a reward and punishment system to encourage them work together.

3. After finishing their missions, we should have evaluation to their performanecs and give some advice.

● Team Spirit:
Communication!
Communication!
Communication!

The Training Programme of Sales Team in SmileCo

To solve some problems in our sales team and develop a strong team, our company is running a training program for seven days.

●  Priorities in this training are updating staff’s sales skills, improve their customer awareness, clear their duties and built inter-team relationship.

●  Seven days short intensive course will be done by internal team, because the fee of training can be cut down and internal staff knows more about the company.

●  We choose to use a new data-collection system because current system is out of date

●  We have a limited training budget, so we decide to choose ten outstanding salesmen to attend the customer awareness training, after they study the course they can deliver knowledge to the rest staff.

●  We can divide our whole sale team to several groups; let them do market researches together to build partnership, or hold a glee feast to let them know each other better.

1. Staff will meet each other at the mobilization meeting. Our leader of sale team will give a short speech, which is mainly about the history and future of our sales team. Then, all salesmen are divided into several groups.

2. All salesmen will take theory courses about their work, just like how to introduce and promote products, deal with different style customers.

3. On the third parts of the training, manager will assign tasks for each group. Group members do a market research as the final paper of the training.

4. Effective supervision and evaluation system is set up. Every day there is a checklist for employees to review. Manager will also give the evaluation of each group by using the evaluation chart.

5. Finally, staff will attend a glee feast and give their speeches.

Dear Andrew,

I’m very happy to hear from you and thank you very much for you invitation. It will be a great pleasure foe me to give you a speech on the subject of ‘merging companies: merging cultures’.

Actually, I do have my own views regarding cultural differences and also get some personal experience and useful suggestion about how to solve this kind of tough problem.

Nowadays, we all put our focus on the intercultural issues, and I’m really willing to share what I have known with you.

Please tell me some more details, like the venue and time-arrangement, so that would make it clearer. I have just checked my schedule, and I think Nov.16 is the most suitable day for me and I wonder if that day is also available for you.

I will send you a speaker’s proposal in three day later. Thank you for your patience.

Best wishes,

Dear Andrew McCarthy,

Thank you for your invitation about giving a speech about “Merging companies: merging cultures” in the conference for intercultural communication. I’d like to give a talk about this topic, it’s a great pleasure for me.

But, I’d be grateful if you give me more details about the conference. Such as the conference’s venue, and how long the speech needs to be. So I can prepare it in advance. And it would be perfect if you send me an email about your company’s brief history, for I want to know more about the company’s culture, backgrounds and so on.

I will send you a proposal for my speech as soon as possible. I wish that we could have a pleasant cooperation.

With the warmest regards,

Jaume Grau

Dear Mr Andrew,

With reference to your letter of 18 October, I really appreciate that you invite me to attend the conference of ‘Merging companies, merging cultures’ next month.

You have my words that I will be there on time and I will give a talk, but I’m not sure about the details of the conference, for example: the venue, how long the talk needs to be and how many people will attend the talk, so I can prepare ahead of the meeting. I hope you don’t mind sending me the details back.

As for the proposal for my talk, I have already got the outline of the speech but I just need time to organize it to make sure I give a plenary talk. If that won’t cause you any trouble I will send my speech draft in two days. Hope you understand.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Jaume Grau

Dear Mr McCarthy,

Thanks for your invitation. It's honored for me to give a talk on this topic.

Next I will express my opinions briefly.
Firstly, we must realize it is a normal problem that appears when different companies are merged. It's crucial that taking appropriate measures timely.

Secondly, how should we deal with it?
The first point is because of different corporate cultures, conflicts come into being. Analyzing the merits and demerits of both cultures. Finding the common and difference, and deciding the new corporate culture and image which have specific characteristics.

The second point is about the internal human resource management. Making the adjustment so that everyone can adapt to the new working environment.

Then, the last point is to have the conpect of people oriented and innovation. For a company, only unceasing enhancement can lead to a better future.

Also please tell me the venue and how long the talk needs to be. I'm waiting for your reply.

Regards,

Andrew McCarthy
