[APAC] Discussion of working principle: "Solve tickets faster"
As the APAC support managers have worked on the outcomes we hope to achieve in FY24-Q1 and the APAC manager-led OKRs, we realised that a lot of what we're doing and aiming for can be encapsulated in three words:
Solve tickets faster
This is in line with our overall message of working differently, not working more.
In the past, we've tried asking support engineers to try picking up more work. More FRTs. More assigned tickets. More. Together, we've found that this has been of limited effectiveness in the long run.
Now, we're changing tack to focus on having support engineers work differently. By finishing the tickets on their plate quicker, support engineers can free up time to do more of what they want (new tickets, training, code contributions, etc).
"Solve tickets faster" is also easy to understand and apply:
- Is what we're currently doing helping us solve tickets faster?
- If we stop or remove a process, will it help us to solve tickets faster?
- Will my ideas and efforts lead us to solve tickets faster as a team?
