Why this webinar

Brace for impact.

The board expected AI to shrink the contact centre. What's left for human agents is mostly the hard stuff, the sensitive and high-value conversations, all day, every day.

At the same time, a new layer of work appears: monitoring AI, coaching agents to work alongside it, and owning AI compliance.

Register for this session to discover how to pivot your contact centre strategy and make it work in 2026 and beyond.

What you'll learn
  • 01
    How to put together a contact centre strategy when AI is part of the function

    Not a pilot bolted onto the side, AI woven through the operation.

  • 02
    What to automate, what stays with people, and how the two combine

    How to split the work, what to automate first and what it actually looks like in practice.

  • 03
    How to govern AI agents once they're live

    What governing AI agents involve, from monitoring performance and failures to managing compliance.

  • 04
    How to test and validate AI before it reaches a customer

    The failures that damage customer experience are the ones you didn't catch first. We'll look at how leading teams pressure-test AI against realistic customer behaviour.
