Thirty-four individuals and teams were recognised last night at our National Awards, for being outstanding role models in their professional community. These individuals and teams release potential and achieve breakthrough – for the customer, the colleague and the organisation.
This award programme from The Forum showcases excellence in the vital Customer Contact Planning, Insight, Quality& Customer Experience functions. Of key importance to the success of these awards, is the unique way that the judging process works at a Best Practice Finalist Day set aside for the purpose. Not only did a wide range of external judges influence the results, but each nomination was peer assessed by other finalists in their category. This resulted in a massive opportunity for learning all round.
“So many of our member organisations are achieving success and delivering breakthrough performance and it is these teams, these individuals who are playing a crucial role in making this happen,” Nicola Callan, Director at The Forum explains.
“These awards recognise and celebrate all of our finalists and winners and they in turn inspire others – all the while raising standards in customer operations. Congratulations to all.”
