Highlighted quotes from episode 6:
- Guest": "This was a great moment because, in the last 2+ years, we automated over 200,000 manual hours."
- Guest: “Hyperautomation could be in anything that could be done better.”
- Guest: “There is a huge opportunity to improve both the employee experience and customer experience. That would be a win for any company or organization.”
- Host: “Success will breed success. In due time, you’ll have your hyperautomation COE (Center of Excellence).”
- Host: “The ‘as is,’ the current state, process is rarely good and clean.”
- Guest: “We reduced the cycle time—just by cleaning up the process—by 75%.”
- Host: “You just solved a three-week problem down to three minutes…That’s customer experience. That’s employee experience. There’s ROI there. There are manual hours saved there. And the overhead was next to nothing. It just took mapping out a process.”
- Host: “That speaks to the idea of you don't have to map out your entire enterprise end-to-end to get started. Some leader somewhere knows where the pain is.”
