The Stevie Awards for Sales & Customer Service are the world’s top honors for customer service, contact center, business development and sales professionals. The Stevie Awards organizes eight of the world’s leading business awards programs, also including the prestigious American Business Awards® and International Business Awards®.

Winners were announced during a gala event attended by more than 400 professionals from around the world at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, Nevada on Friday, March 3.

The Bronze Stevie® Winner for Contact Center Professional of the Year was awarded to Amanda Mihalik, workforce manager of data and reporting in customer care at LegalShield.

Since joining the organization in 2019, Mihalik has made significant contributions in resource management, tracking, and reporting within the customer care department.

Her efforts have attributed to improving the customer experience platform and the organization’s workforce management processes.

“Amanda has been instrumental in the growth and success of the customer care department and uses data-driven insights to create meaningful resources to help us better serve our members and customers,” said Stephanie Gaccetta, vice president of customer care at LegalShield. “She is very deserving of this recognition for her hard work and leadership.”

More than 2,300 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry, in 49 nations and territories, were considered in this year’s competition. Winners were determined by the average scores of more than 170 professionals worldwide on seven specialized judging committees.
