          How to Get Your Social Care Agents Obsessed with Service

          by Vit Horky
          September 26, 2019
          Share

          "Why is that aircraft in San Salvador?"

          A customer posted the message along with a photo of the plane's tail number on JetBlue's Facebook page.

          It might seem like a trivial question, but the social care agent who responded knew it was important to the customer. There are aviation enthusiasts whose hobby is vicariously traveling around the globe by tracking an airline's fleet of planes.

          The social care agent didn't know the answer, so she made some inquiries to find out. It took time to research and other departments had to get involved.

          She was finally able to respond and tell the customer the plane was there for maintenance.

          This agent was clearly obsessed with serving her customers. Most agents would ignore the question or reply with a generic "I don't know" answer and move on. But not this one.

          The question is how does JetBlue and other leading brands get their social care agents obsessed in the first place?

          Here are three things JetBlue does that you can do, too.

          Have a Vision

          JetBlue has a clear purpose statement that provides all its employees (called crewmembers) with a shared definition of outstanding service: Inspire Humanity.

          I call this a customer service vision because it helps employees visualize the type of service they are trying to provide for their customers.

          You can see Inspire Humanity come to life with this social care agent. She wasn't just trying to respond to a customer question. Her goal was to inspire her customer by connecting with him on a human-to-human level.

          That's why she went out of her way to find an answer. She knew this was something he cared about.

          A good customer service vision fits three criteria:

          Now, here's the good news. There's a good chance that your company has a customer service vision already. In many organizations, there's a mission statement or an externally focused brand promise statement that matches these three criteria.

          So, you don't need to reinvent the wheel. You just need to make sure your social care agents all understand what your brand stands for.

          Constant Reinforcement

          Employees tend to understand how important something is by how often their leaders talk about it.

          At JetBlue, leaders talk about the Inspire Humanity vision all the time. Laurie Meacham, who leads JetBlue's social care team, has ongoing discussions with her agents about the vision and how they can bring it to life.

          The goal is ensuring everyone can answer three questions about the vision:

          JetBlue's social care team members work from home, but they travel to the company's Salt Lake City headquarters once per quarter to re-engage with each other and the vision.

          This presents a great opportunity to share stories that reinforce the vision, such as the social care agent who researched the reason a plane was in San Salvador.

          Empower Employees

          We tend to think of employee empowerment as giving people the authority to bend policies, but true empowerment is made up of three components:

          Without all three, many social care agents are forced to provide unhelpful responses to customer needs, either because they can’t take the time needed to resolve the issue or they don't have resources or procedures that enable them to help the customer.

          Let's go back to that JetBlue social care agent. She had the authority to spend extra time researching information for her customer. She also had the resources to find that information, in this case a connection with someone in another department. Finally, she had procedures that allowed her to identify the customer's question, spend time researching it, and then respond accordingly.

          What if service wasn’t something customers had to chase… but something that found them? What if technology didn’t replace people… but actually amplified their ability to serve? What if we could finally blur the lines between the front office and back office… making the entire customer journey seamless?
