Cash Cab Boosts Team Spirit and Motivation During Customer Service Week
Spirited competitions mark Customer Service Week celebrations around the globe.
(Boonton, NJ, September 2, 2010) — Why were the customer service reps at Kansas City Life Insurance Company driving around the parking lot on company time?
It was all part of the annual Customer Service Week celebration, which served to recognize and reward frontline reps for their hard work and dedication throughout the year.
The highlight of the week was a game based on the Discovery Channel hit, "Cash Cab."
In the Kansas City Life version, reps were asked to report to the front door of the building at designated times throughout the day. Awaiting them was a manager's car decorated with play money. After reps piled in and the rules were explained, the car took off on laps around the parking lot. Reps responded to a range of questions receiving play money for correct answers. However, after three incorrect answers, the ride was abruptly over, reps exited the car, and had to walk back to the office.
Kansas City Life was not alone in celebrating Customer Service Week. Each year, thousands of companies around the globe recognize and reward their frontline staff during the week, which will be celebrated October 4-8, 2010
