ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for generating efficiency reports, which in one embodiment among many, can be broadly summarized by a representative method of associating a call-center supervisor with a call center, obtaining a network statistic for the call center, categorizing the network statistic into one of a group of multiple categories, and providing a pictorial representation of the group of multiple categories. Another embodiment can be described as an efficiency report generator that has logic configured to associate a call-center supervisor with a call center, logic configured to obtain a network statistic for the call center, logic configured to categorize the network statistic into one of a group of multiple categories; and logic configured to provide a pictorial representation of the group of multiple categories.
