Project Details

A large retail organization had unsustainable turnover and complaints about their internal Point of Sale Help Desk Team.

The growing dissatisfaction with the help desk team was negatively impacting the firm’s ability to support their retail stores around the globe.

We utilized our network of senior leaders and SMEs to find and place an interim manager with help desk subject matter expertise, ample leadership experience, and a proven track record of improving culture through systematic assessments and change.

Through a process of peer assessments, visioning sessions, role re-structuring, training plan creation, and strategic recruitment, help desk team morale and customer satisfaction were quickly and noticeably improved.
