Hiring the Right Type of Agent

Informed by “Kick-Ass Customer Service” from the January-February 2017 issue of the Harvard Business Review by Matthew Dixon, Lara Ponomareff, Scott Turner and Rick DeLisi

  • The Overview:
    • This article is simply fantastic and full of useful information. I highly recommend you give it a read.
    • For our purposes today we’re focusing on hiring the right type of agent

  • The Study
    • The authors conducted a global, cross industry study of 1440 reps
    • Seven types of agents emerged from the data

  • The Seven Types of Agents (Everyone is some blended variety but has a dominant type)
    • Accommodators – Meet customers halfway with discounts and refunds
    • Competitors – Focus on outperforming other reps
    • Controllers – Outspoken, opinionated, demonstrate expertise
    • Empathizers – Good listeners who like helping others
    • Hard Workers – Follow rules and procedures
    • Innovators – Process improvers, idea generators
    • Rocks – Don’t take conversations personally

  • The Results
    • 42% of managers reported preferring to hire empathizers
    • But… Customer satisfaction ratings scored much higher with Controllers
      • What??
      • Yes!

    • Because… essentially empathizers apologize and controllers just make things happen. And customers want resolution first and then an apology second.

  • Summary:
    • Consider going against long-held beliefs that empathizers should handle your support
    • Try hiring people who are primarily controllers with undertones of empathy rather than the reverse.
