liliana lopez

In this Coach’s Corner, our CEO, Dan McCann, sat down with Liliana Lopez, Chief Technology Officer at LiveOps, to explore how high-performing CX organizations balance technology, people, and process to develop stronger teams and deliver better customer experiences.

Together, they dive into:

  • How digital transformation is ultimately a people and adoption challenge, not simply a technology initiative, and why alignment across teams is critical to successful change.
  • The three foundations of effective coaching: ownership, accountability, and discipline; and how clarity, context, and trust help leaders create an environment where teams can take ownership of outcomes.
  • How AI simulations, QA automation, and other technologies can create consistency and scale coaching, while human leaders remain essential for building judgment, confidence, and empathy.
  • Why investing in coaching the coaches and trainers creates a ripple effect across an organization, and how great leaders focus on bringing out the best in every person.
