• Build a shared, fact-based understanding of the current agent experience and clearly articulate the desired future-state experience.
• Develop experience measurement frameworks, dashboards, and reporting that connect Voice of the Agent insights to business outcomes such as recruiting, licensing, retention, productivity, and revenue per agent.
• Facilitate cross-functional working sessions that align stakeholders around agent needs, prioritize opportunities, and establish accountable owners and remediation plans.
• Monitor progress against experience improvements, assess whether interventions are producing the intended results, and recommend adjustments when needed.
• Serve as a strategic advocate for the agent perspective in business planning, transformation initiatives, platform decisions, and operating-model changes.
• Lead, develop, and inspire a high-performing team responsible for agent research, experience insights, journey management, measurement, and feedback-loop governance.
• Foster an enterprise culture of agent-centric decision-making by making insights accessible, relevant, and actionable for leaders and teams across the organization.
