Frontline managers have never had more performance data, and never had less time to act on it. Signals are scattered across QA, WFM, LMS, CRM, and a growing stack of dashboards. Now AI agents are joining the workforce as a new layer to oversee, and the gap between performance insight and performance change is widening fast.

This is the action gap. Closing it is the defining challenge facing frontline leaders this year.

Join Ian Chappell, Director of Consulting, EMEA at Centrical, for a practical follow-up to The Forum's Best Practice Showcase. Ian opens with a look at why most platforms are widening the gap rather than closing it, then previews three Centrical capabilities built for the manager's job in a hybrid human-AI workforce.

In today’s dynamic contact centre environment, volatility isn’t an exception—it’s the rule. Fluctuating demand, evolving customer and employee expectations, make traditional planning approaches difficult. This webinar explores why volatility has become the new normal and how organisations can use tools in NICE to mitigate this. 

Join us for an insightful session featuring:

 - Long-Term Forecasting: Techniques to anticipate demand shifts and plan strategically.
 - Intelligent Scheduling: Balancing flexibility and efficiency in a volatile landscape, whilst maintaining Employee Engagement. 
 - Performance Management: Driving engagement and accountability and providing the operation data for identifying tactical and strategic shifts in your business.

Reset, Redefine & Raise Standards
This keynote launches the week by challenging us to turn intent into action. Explore how learning, reflection and ownership drive personal growth and organisational progress. Discover how tools like the Learning Tracker, Reflective Method, and the Learning Pyramid support continuous improvement. We'll explore how to break out of firefighting, align strategy with daily action, and shift from “being busy” to “making a difference”. It's time to reset habits, redefine success, and commit to doing things differently. Because done will always beat intended.
