You will benefit from this amazing reference guide and companion CD whether you manage a help desk or a technical support center. Developed by fellow support center and help desk manager, Kristin Robertson, Spectacular Support Centers presents best practices, and then discusses the modifications needed for smaller centers. Kristin is uniquely qualified to author the book because of her experience in running large and small support centers, as well as being a former member of the HDI training faculty and author of her own classes. In particular, Kristin audits the world’s best support centers and sees best practices at work in these successful organizations. She brings together all these talents in Spectacular Support Centers to give you the benefit of her vast experience and knowledge. “I wanted to provide a true resource to the small and mid-size support center and help desk, a valuable market that I believe is underserved,” says Kristin.
Why are best practices so important? Because best practices build on that collective body of experience and show us proven ways to run a support center. It reflects that the support industry has matured to the point that we know what works and what does not. Spectacular Support Centers focuses on the process variations that work for small to mid-sized support organizations. You have all the information you need in one system (the book and companion CD) which is not only convenient, but a great bargain when you compare it to a consulting engagement with one of the premier experts in the industry!
