EMOTIONS WELL
Source: “Intense Emotions and Strong Feelings”, Psychology Today, December 2010
“Emotions are not particularly sophisticated or precise, but their speed and utility make up for what they lack in sophistication and precision.”
And this can turn out good, bad, or ugly. Especially when you’ve already taken 20 calls that day, and you have only 8 minutes to address BOTH parts problem and emotion.

Escalations –both your agent and your customers get “hooked”
