What is Webuttik?
Webbutik is an online retailer specializing in womens and mens apparel and shoes. Webbutiks leadership have decided to invest resources to improve the online retail experience for customers in order to stay competitive in the online retail marketplace. Before leaders can invest necessary resources into fixing the company website, they have to address the immediate problem of poor customer service and the impending mass exodus of customer service reps before the holiday season.
The leaders decide to hire a consultant (YOU) to develop a Talent Management Plan for customer service representatives and customer service managers. The Talent Management Plan would detail strategies and approaches to address the following goals:
- Identification and selection of external job candidates for the customer service representative position
- Identification of internal customer service representatives who are high performers and could be developed for managerial positions
- Onboarding new hires
- Training and developing existing customer service representatives
- Improving recruitment and retention of customer service representatives
