— Olympics-themed Contact Center Performance Challenge to Coincide with Paris 2024 Games —
INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana, July 17, 2024 — TouchPoint One, the leading innovator in gamification for CX workforce performance optimization, is excited to announce the 2024 Olympics-themed edition of its renowned A-GAME Leagues Contact Center Performance Challenge. A-GAME Medalist 2024, launching in tandem with the Olympic Games Paris 2024, will catalyze engagement, camaraderie, and motivation across the CX workforce, elevating morale, reducing attrition, and enhancing performance.
“As the standards for exceptional customer experience continue to escalate, simply tracking metrics is no longer sufficient," stated Greg Salvato, CEO of TouchPoint One. "Creating environments where employees feel genuinely connected to their work, colleagues, and outcomes is essential. The A-GAME Leagues platform, including Medalist 2024, shifts leadership from passive observers to active participants in a stimulating game of strategy, competition, and hands-on engagement.”
A-GAME Leagues employs diverse and immersive themes, from sports tournaments to magical quests, to captivate and motivate large, varied customer contact teams. The Medalist 2024 edition will feature round-robin tournaments, single-elimination playoffs, and season-end championships. Supervisors act as coaches, selecting weekly starting lineups from their rosters to compete against other teams. Game scoring aligns with the performance metrics already used for management, providing a comprehensive approach to performance enhancement.
The Xtreme feature distinguishes A-GAME Leagues by involving senior executives in the competition. Each league has a finite number of 'team owner' opportunities, determined through a pre-defined or opt-in first-come, first-served process. These leaders draft and manage 'fantasy' agent teams, competing head-to-head while being measured on leadership effectiveness metrics such as team performance, engagement, attrition, and employee satisfaction. Dedicated dashboards allow Xtreme owners to monitor team standings, wager on matchups, boost their owner Power Rankings, and engage directly with frontline staff.
Unique Features of A-GAME Leagues:
"Accountability and fun often seem incompatible in the workplace," Salvato continued. "With A-GAME Leagues, we've crafted a high-stakes environment where leaders genuinely invest in their teams' success. Winning is synonymous with stellar leadership."
