Beyond Headcount: Scaling an AI-Powered Support Team for the Future
Traditional metrics like team size no longer dictate support success today. In this talk, Kenji Hayward, Senior Director of Customer Support at Front, will explore how support leaders can leverage AI to build high-impact teams that raise the bar for exceptional customer experiences without increasing headcount. Kenji will also discuss how AI is transforming the role of the support agent, automating repetitive tasks, and empowering agents to focus on higher-value activities like complex problem-solving and customer relationship building. With this in mind, Kenji will highlight the new roles that will emerge on support teams as a result of AI and how leaders can best manage them. Kenji will share strategies for optimizing workflows, upskilling agents, and investing in AI-powered solutions to create a more efficient and effective support organization. Attendees will leave no longer thinking about how to build a bigger support team, but instead focusing on how to create the most impactful one.
