Transparency in Action: Q&A with Zoom Leadership on CX and EX SolutionsTransparency in Action: Q&A with Zoom Leadership on CX and EX Solutions
An industry analyst meeting presented an opportunity for face-to-face dialogue about Zoom’s customer and employee experience solutions.
August 10, 2023
I admit to being a Zoom analyst newbie. Until the company decided to enter the decidedly busy CCaaS space in 2022, Zoom was a company whose meeting solution helped my family to stay close and kept my business rolling along through the pandemic.
So, unlike some of my analyst colleagues, this was just my second Zoom analyst event, and I am still getting to know the executive team. This year’s meeting held August 2-3, in Palo Alto, Ca., showcased the company’s well-known video technology by including 35 in-person analyst participants with about 50 participating remotely from around the world.
At Enterprise Connect 2023, Zoom announced it would enter the workforce engagement management (WEM) market later in the year with a workforce management (WFM) solution. Last week, the company declared that its Zoom WFM is now generally available and that a quality management solution is currently in the beta testing phase.
My friend, colleague and fellow Enterprise Connect speaker Juanita Coley is as passionate about workforce engagement management as I am about contact center technology. Coley and I decided to join forces to ask some of our burning questions of the Zoom leadership team.
Coley and I tag-team our questions in the following video (embedded below) with these Zoom executives.
Graeme Geddes, chief sales officer.
Ted Yoshikawa, head of product, contact center (beginning at ~5:22).
Kentis Gopalla, head of ecosystem, contact center & phone (beginning at ~9:38).
Scott Brown, head of Zoom CX sales & GTM (beginning at ~12:40).
John Goulding and Gideon Pridor, CEO and CMO, Workvivo, a Zoom Company (beginning at ~19:09). Perhaps, like me, you know little about Workvivo, a company acquired by Zoom in April 2023. It’s still early days, but I believe the employee engagement technology Workvivo brings to Zoom has the potential to improve engagement with every single employee in a company, large or small.
