Synopsis

According to the episode, one of the benefits of business process outsourcing (BPO) is the provision of breaks, time off, and other perks for employees. The guest speaker emphasized the importance of organizations seeking out a BPO that prioritizes the well-being of its people and employees. When employees feel a sense of belonging, have growth opportunities, and have their ideas valued, they are more likely to deliver excellent customer service. By selecting a BPO that takes care of its employees, organizations can ensure that their customers receive top-notch service, as the employees will have all the necessary tools and support. This focus on employee well-being ultimately leads to a positive customer experience and effective outsourcing.

Sarah Ellenberg holds the position of Vice President of Professional Services at Partner Hero, where she has been employed for an undisclosed period. In her role, she oversees various departments including CX quality assurance, software quality assurance, workforce management, and project management. These departments primarily support Partner Hero's customer experience operations teams, which provide services such as customer support, content moderation, trust and safety back office, and more for over 150 different companies. Sarah's responsibility is to ensure the smooth and efficient functioning of these teams.
