Preview of the Fifteenth Annual Call Center Week

Call Center Week is the largest and most comprehensive event for the customer service industry. This year’s event is taking place June 9–13, 2014, at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. With an expected 1,500 attendees, 120 speakers, 70 sessions, and 110 sponsors and exhibitors, no other event comes close in size, scope, breadth, and depth. This year’s theme is “Competing on Service: Seize the Opportunity.”

Attendees Speak Out:

“My team gains a huge amount of information and networking opportunities. This event also serves as an opportunity to pull my team from all operation locations and enjoy some team-building activities.” -Greg Barrows, vice president/director, customer service operations, Wells Fargo

“When I walked into the room, the energy blew me away. It’s rare to see this type of energy in such a large-scale event.” -Maxine Clark, chief executive bear, Build-a-Bear Workshop (2013 Lifetime Achievement Award Winner, Call Center Week Excellence Awards)

“Excellent! The show has grown wonderfully. There’s very good attendance. I have attended many of the sessions, and there are lots of good speakers and a lot of good ideas that could be brought home and utilized.” -Bruce Belfiore, CEO, Benchmark Portal

“I’ve done a lot of trade shows, and I think one of the things that has happened quite well at this show is the social interaction. The organizers have done a lot to get us connected with each other, and so we’ve made some great relationships just in the last couple of days.” -Ron Burr, chief revenue officer, Callfire
