What You’ll Learn Section
Should your agents stick to scripts or go freeform? Too much scripting feels robotic, while too much freedom risks compliance and inconsistency. This white paper explores a blended coaching model that balances both, helping agents sound natural while staying aligned with company standards.
- Why over-scripting reduces authenticity and damages trust
- How freeform risks inconsistency and compliance gaps without structure
- A hybrid coaching framework that guides agents to use scripts as scaffolding while adapting to real conversation
- Practical role plays, feedback loops, and metrics to track improvements in satisfaction, ramp speed, and conversion
