Responsibilities:

Coaching sessions were held with each team member individually as well as a whole team together on a weekly basis, which was conducted in person as well as on the Microsoft Teams software. Thereafter the advisors then had to load the coaching's that were completed on SharePoint.

Refresher courses with quick useful tips and short cuts on the SUMMIT and Assist system were provided to all teams on a weekly basis in order to eliminate their talk time and increase their performance speed.

Call Reviews and Call Flow Processes were carried out in order for the advisors to focus on the quality of their calls.

All tasks were reallocated to each advisor equally in order for them to be able to complete their daily tasks and to follow up on all tasks that were incomplete. Spot checks were done on all incomplete tasks to make sure that the new Underwriting tool was being used, and that the proper follow ups are being done on the tasks before new tasks are reallocated.
