What is CCW?
Started in 1999 as Call Center Week, CCW is the world’s largest customer contact event series. With the balance of conference and expo, CCW is the place where customer care, CX, and contact center leaders come together. In 2018 we’re introducing our new look as Customer Contact Week.
The CCW Shark
Barbara Corcoran
Chairman and CEO, Barbara Corcoran Inc. & a “Shark” on ABC’s Emmy Award-winning show Shark Tank
Barbara Corcoran’s credits include straight D’s in high school and college and 20 jobs by the time she turned 23. It was her next job that would make her one of the most successful entrepreneurs in the country: She borrowed $1,000 to start a tiny real estate company in New York City. Over the next 25 years Barbara parlayed that $1,000 loan into a $5 billion real estate business, building the largest and best-known brand in the business. Corcoran has been an investor/Shark for the past nine seasons on ABC’s four-time Emmy award winning show, Shark Tank. She is the author of the best seller Shark Tales: How I Turned $1,000 into a Billion Dollar Business!
Inspirational.
It’s easy to get where you want to go once the path has been paved. Hear from some of the most groundbreaking, inspirational people the customer contact industry has to offer as they share their journeys from where they started to where they are today.
