RA'ANANA, Israel, April 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

NICE NICE announced today that it will be heading a session on "How Voice of the Customer and Lifetime Value Can Lead To Real-Time Satisfaction For Driving Future Results" at the Frost & Sullivan MindXchange 2012, taking place at the Marriott Marco Island Beach Resort Marco Island, FL, April 15-18, 2012. This session will take place today, at 3:50pm. NICE will also be demonstrating the advanced capabilities of its comprehensive customer service offering, including NICE Fizzback. Also during the event, Matthew Storm, Director of Innovation & Solutions at NICE, will present "Impacting Every Customer Interaction."

"Voice of the Customer is gaining a lot of attention, and there are many ways which organizations can leverage this data to better understand and predict customer behavior as well as define objectives for customer-facing employees," said Brian Powers, Client Services Director at NICE. "Add to that the need to move the needle for Net Promoter Score (NPS), and this discussion will allow people to come away with a deeper understanding of customer feedback, survey saturation and best practices."

During the session with Brian Powers, participants will discuss how Voice of the Customer can drive results by addressing some tough issues, such as: 

• Is the customer always right?  Are unsatisfied customers worth the effort of saving?  If so, at what cost?
• Can front-line service staff training needs be determined based directly on customer feedback? 
• Are there ways to overcome survey saturation and get to the critical pieces of VoC results in real-time? 

NICE Fizzback is NICE's Voice of the Customer solution, providing software solutions for Real-Time Customer Feedback that drive customer loyalty and employee performance. The award winning Fizzback solution helps companies to listen, respond and act in real-time to their customers' comments.

NICE Systems will also be the Senior Panel Sponsor at the 2012 Customer Care Leadership Forum organized by Argyle Executive Forum on today in New York City. During this invitation-only event, David Morse, Regional Vice President Sales at NICE, will moderate the panel discussion "Leadership Speaks: Customer Care Predicts and Prepares." The panel discussion will take place from 9:50-10:35 a.m. Topics include: the toughest challenges Customer Care executives are facing in 2012; how the role of the Customer Care Professional continues to evolve; the change of skill sets within Customer Care; how new technologies are changing the role of customer care and the way organizations interact with customers; and how to balance the short terms needs of the organization with the long term needs of sustainable growth.
