Abstract

Methods and systems determining customer satisfaction in a work environment via prescriptive analytics. Self-reported data related to the perception of an agent with respect to customer satisfaction in a work environment (e.g., a call center) can be collected via an interface (e.g., an agent dashboard) that allows the agent to enter the self-reported data regarding the customer satisfaction. The self-reported data can then be correlated with an actual customer satisfaction score associated with the agent to derive data indicative of an interaction between the agent and a customer(s). Feedback data can then be provided via the interface indicating a correctness of the self-reported data based on correlating the self-reported data with the actual customer satisfaction score.

Claims (33)

1. A method for determining customer satisfaction in a work environment via prescriptive analytics displayed and manipulated through a graphical user interface, said method comprising:

collecting self-reported data related to a perception of an agent with respect to customer satisfaction in a work environment via a graphical user interface that allows said agent to enter said self-reported data regarding said customer satisfaction, said graphical user interface comprising a graphically displayed agent dashboard that displays said self-reported data for said agent in a graphically displayed circular data pattern in a first display area of said graphical user interface;

correlating said self-reported data with an actual customer satisfaction score associated with said agent to derive data indicative of an interaction between said agent and a customer, wherein said self-reported data is thereafter used to provide feedback data to said agent that is based on said data derived that is indicative of said interaction between said agent and said customer; and

providing said feedback data via said graphical user interface in a second display area of said graphical user interface indicating a correctness of said self-reported data in said circular data pattern based on said correlating said self-reported data with said actual customer satisfaction score, wherein said first and second display areas of said graphical user interface facilitate improved processing, manipulation, and interactive display of said prescriptive analytics.

2. The method of claim 1 further comprising prompting said agent to enter said self-reported data via said graphical user interface during a call with said customer or immediately after said call with said customer.

3. The method of claim 1 further comprising prompting said agent to enter said self-reported data via said graphical user interface during a predetermined time interval.

4. The method of claim 1 further comprising automatically analyzing said feedback data associated with said agent with respect to feedback data associated with at least one other agent to provide an overall customer satisfaction score for said work environment.

5. The method of claim 4 further comprising selecting at least one referee agent associated with said work environment by analyzing said overall customer satisfaction score.

6. The method of claim 1 wherein said second display area of said graphical user interface displays a score indicative of interactions between said agent and said customer.

7. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

prompting said agent to enter said self-reported data via said graphical user interface during a call with said customer or immediately after said call with said customer; and

prompting said agent to enter said self-reported data via said graphical user interface during a predetermined time interval.

8. The method of claim 7 further comprising automatically analyzing said feedback data associated with said agent with respect to feedback data associated with at least one other agent to provide an overall customer satisfaction score for said work environment.

9. A system for determining customer satisfaction in a work environment via prescriptive analytics displayed and manipulated through a graphical user interface, said system comprising:

a graphical user interface that allows an agent to enter self-reported data regarding customer satisfaction, wherein said self-reported data is related to a perception of said agent with respect to said customer satisfaction in a work environment, said graphical user interface comprising a graphically displayed agent dashboard that displays said self-reported data for said agent in a graphically displayed circular data pattern in a first display area of said graphical user interface; and

at least one processor that communicates electronically with said interface, wherein said at least one processor correlates said self-reported data with an actual customer satisfaction score associated with said agent to derive data indicative of an interaction between said agent and a customer, wherein said self-reported data is thereafter used to provide feedback data to said agent that is based on said data derived that is indicative of said interaction between said agent and said customer; and

wherein said feedback data is provided via said graphical user interface in a second display area of said graphical user interface to indicate a correctness of said self-reported data in said circular data pattern based on said correlating said self-reported data by said at least one processor with said actual customer satisfaction score, wherein said first and second display areas of said graphical user interface facilitate improved processing, manipulation, and interactive display of said prescriptive analytics.

10. The system of claim 9 wherein said agent is prompted to enter said self-reported data via said graphical user interface during a call with said customer or immediately after said call with said customer.

11. The system of claim 9 wherein said agent is prompted to enter said self-reported data via said graphical user interface during a predetermined time interval.

12. The system of claim 9 further comprising wherein said feedback data associated with said agent with respect to feedback data associated with at least one other agent is automatically analyzed via said at least one processor to provide an overall customer satisfaction score for said work environment.

13. The system of claim 12 wherein at least one referee agent associated with said work environment is selected by analyzing via said at least one processor said overall customer satisfaction score.

14. The system of claim 9 wherein said second display area of said graphical user interface displays a score indicative of interactions between said agent and said customer.

15. The system of claim 9 wherein:

said agent is prompted to enter said self-reported data via said graphical user interface during a call with said customer or immediately after said call with said customer; and

said agent is prompted to enter said self-reported data via said graphical user interface during a predetermined time interval.

16. The system of claim 15 wherein at least one referee agent associated with said work environment is selected by analyzing via said at least one processor said overall customer satisfaction score.

17. A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to cause a process for determining customer satisfaction in a work environment via prescriptive analytics displayed and manipulated through a graphical user interface, said code including code to:

collect self-reported data related to a perception of an agent with respect to customer satisfaction in a work environment via a graphical user interface that allows said agent to enter said self-reported data regarding said customer satisfaction, said graphical user interface comprising a graphically displayed agent dashboard that displays said self-reported data for said agent in a graphically displayed circular data pattern in a first display area of said graphical user interface;

correlate said self-reported data with an actual customer satisfaction score associated with said agent to derive data indicative of an interaction between said agent and a customer, wherein said self-reported data is thereafter used to provide feedback data to said agent that is based on said data derived that is indicative of said interaction between said agent and said customer; and

provide said feedback data via said graphical user interface in a second display area of said graphical user interface indicating a correctness of said self-reported data in said circular data pattern based on said correlating said self-reported data with said actual customer satisfaction score, wherein said first and second display areas of said graphical user interface facilitate improved processing, manipulation, and interactive display of said prescriptive analytics.

18. The non-statutory processor-readable medium of claim 17 wherein said code further includes code to prompt said agent to enter said self-reported data via said graphical user interface during a call with said customer or immediately after said call with said customer.

19. The non-statutory processor-readable medium of claim 17 wherein said code further includes code to prompt said agent to enter said self-reported data via said graphical user interface during a predetermined time interval.

20. The non-statutory processor-readable medium of claim 17 wherein said code further includes code to automatically analyze said feedback data associated with said agent with respect to feedback data associated with at least one other agent to provide an overall customer satisfaction score for said work environment.
