He deals with the related technology, process, and people aspects of call center operations in a clear, systematic manner that makes the technical aspects accessible to all. ...helps us cut through the jargon and grasp the underlying concepts. Free of gobbledygook, Day guides us on a step-by-step understanding of many of the developments within the teleservices industry. ...Day's knowledge and recommendations come from years of practice serving hundreds of clients and from his impressive synthesis of concepts and materials. In this 500-page book, he has produced an exceptional reference guide that is packed full of useful information on call-handling applications. His writing is lucid and eloquent. What's more, he has organized his framework, chapters, appendices, index, and glossary so that navigating is easy. He takes us from the general to the particular--so we can choose between a surface understanding and real submersion in the subject. He tells us the basics and also provides a context to make sense of new developments and shifts that are currently taking place.
