Folks,make way for the talented and dashing young people of our sunrise industry.
It’s the first time I’ve attended an event of this kind – an inter-BPO talent competition. I’ve heard of call center battle of the bands, but not something like this – it’s American Idol meets Britain’s Got Talent meets the young Pinoys who speak really good English.
Contact Center Icons 2011 was organized by the Business Process Association of the Philippines (BPAP) and the HRCC, a council of HR personnel from contact centers. The event was held last Sunday in a full-packed SMDC Grand Showroom at the Mall of Asia. The talent show had two categories – voice and groove. While the contestants of the voice competition were really good, I would have to say the non-singer in me just sat there and waited for the groove part to start.
Then when the groove part rolled out, the awesome dancer in me went crazy over the 25 competing teams. I was like – FTW you have time ??! I saw agents flying. Yes they have time.
I wished I was cheering for a team, to complete the experience, but I wasn’t part of the industry. Well, I was rooting Convergys, but their moves like jagger didn’t make it to the finals.
Here are some photos of the groove competition. Sorry if it’s blurry, I was taking these shots from upstairs. Thanks to Canon G12′s ultrazoom ( 20x zoom, sweet.)
