Rowan Trollope (CEO of FIve9) joined Scott Britton and Andrei Newman on the Built By Humans podcast. Here are some key takeaways from the conversation: Thanks to technology, businesses no longer have to trade good customer service for a healthy margin. Leaders have to create an environment where people feel that level of psychological safety to be themselves. Emulating others makes you a bad copy of someone else (humans have a really unique ability to pick up inauthenticity). It is the most unusual part of humans that draws us in (authenticity attracts). If a CEO wants to understand their business, go watch what your customer support reps are doing. If you can automate 90% of support tickets that are tedious and repetitive, the support job becomes quite intellectually stimulating.
During the pandemic, 75% of people have changed brands. 75%. Just let that number sink in for a minute.

Top Takeaways:- A web- or cloud-based interface is an excellent option for working from home, as it allows users access to everything they need without being tied to one specific device or location. - One of the downsides to working remotely is the lack of human interaction and creative in-person collaboration. Communication technology (such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Slack) can help combat this. - The biggest mistake companies make when converting to a remote workforce is attempting to recreate the in-office environment. Companies must be flexible and embrace the differences—and benefits—working remotely provides. - Asynchronous work is a huge benefit of working from home. For this to work, managers must trust their employees to do their job and focus on the things that matter. If they do, often employees will come up with more innovative solutions to get their work done. - Humanize the remote working experience. Without “water cooler conversations,” we should encourage people to share information and details from their lives with their team. This will help teams stay connected while being physically distant. - Businesses need to find a way to connect and communicate authentically and empathetically with their customers without a physical presence. Video and voice channels are ideal—but other options may be more feasible or efficient. - The use of emojis is a great way to humanize a digital interaction. Emojis—and even animated GIFs or memes—soften the tone of text and add empathy. - Flexibility between channels of communication is imperative. Consumers want to be able to switch seamlessly between channels without having to start over. - The customer experience starts with the employee experience, and the employee experience starts with leadership. Treat your employees with empathy, authenticity and vulnerability, and they will treat customers better and create a better outcome for your business. Quote:“In the customer service world, the experience that you deliver to your customers is going to start with treat your teams—how you treat your own employees. Having compassion for your employees and being authentic with those employees is what’s defining brands right now.” About:Rowan Trollope is CEO of Five9, a leading provider of cloud contact center software for the enterprise. He is a recognized Silicon Valley leader with a depth of experience in software solutions and cloud innovation. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Self-driving cars are a big no. “If you assume out of the gate that AI is going to be wrong a significant fraction of the time, whether that's 10 or 20 or even 30%, you're already in the ballpark of a major use case,” Jonathan Rosenberg, CTO and Head of AI at Five9 said. Why would you put a system that would mess up in charge of driving? How about putting it in charge of something with a low inaccuracy cost instead? We need to seek out zero cost of inaccuracy, explained Rowan Trollope, Five9 CEO. That means applications of AI where you can tolerate mistakes and still get benefit when it's not. Not self-driving cars. Think product recommendations, call center assistants, and diagnostic aids.
Let’s give contact center reps AI superpowers. “What are the superpowers? Know the answer to every question and don't make them type,” said Rowan Trollope, Five9 CEO, in the next part of our ongoing discussion about how to make customers love AI. Hint: Don’t give the AI to the customers. Give them to the agents. Jonathan Rosenberg, CTO and Head of AI at Five9, describes the superpowers like this: “All the things that an agent does when they put you on hold? Typing things in, searching, following steps in a process. Let's automate that stuff so that it happens instantly,” Jonathan said. Then everyone wins. Agents work better and customers are overjoyed.
Computers get things wrong all the time. Especially with AI, which is actually learning, there’s no question that computers are going to mess up. Hopefully not in a way that freaks out customers, though. Being strategic about where you can allow inaccuracy is key. On this week’s episode, we listen to part one of a special series that follows Rowan Trollope, our CEO at Five9, and Jonathan Rosenberg, CTO and head of AI, through an insightful conversation on AI and the future of the contact center. “This gets back to assistance versus voice bots, which is really a fascinating conversation,” Rowan said. “The voice bot misunderstands what the user is saying, and then the user gets scared.”
Dave and Evan meet with Rowan Trollope, the CEO of cloud contact center provider Five9.

Rowan Mehail Trollope was named the CEO of Five9 in May 2018. Previously, he headed the Collaboration group at Cisco. Rowan also held several leadership positions over 20 years at Symantec, where he helped grow it to the global leader in consumer security.Rowan has completed the Executive Institute at the Graduate School of Business, Stanford University, and the Stanford Directors College at Stanford Law School.
Chatbots are the new IVR. When you’re not talking to a human, they’re incredibly dumb (and not very helpful). A select few companies have gotten them right, but overall people are desperate to speak to a human as soon as possible. In the third and final part of our interview with Five9 CEO, Rowan Trollope, we talk about company culture, a failed experiment in conversational intelligence, and why there is still a bright future for the pairing of humans and AI—despite our built-in reluctance to go all-in on robots.
“It’s hard to predict what’s going to be created. It’s easy to see what’s going to be destroyed.” On today’s episode of That’s Genius podcast, Michael continues his interview with Five9 CEO, Rowan Trollope, as they discuss what the future holds for the contact center in an increasingly automated world. “The shift of brick and mortar to online is going to drive a lot of the current people who are doing retail into contact centers,” says Rowan, who says we still need that human touch. “One of the most important dynamics of the new business model is that the more you engage with your customer, the more you increase the lifetime value of that relationship with the customer in a services led business.”
Do your agents have superpowers? Is your AI intuitive enough that customers actually look forward to engaging with your call center? If not, don’t worry. They will be--it’s only a matter of time. On this first episode of the That’s Genius! podcast, host Michael Rose sits down with Rowan Trollope, CEO of Five9, to chat about what incredible changes are in store for the future of contact centers.
