Is your customer team dehumanized?

Is your customer team dehumanized?

“When customers read our responses, they feel more empathy with our chatbot than with our human agents!” It may seem a paradox, but it’s exactly what some managers are complaining about these days. Of course I refer to those who carry out quality checks over Digital Customer Service conversations on a regular basis. As some of them are observing their customer service team dehumanized, this issue is also affecting their KPIs.
