Webinar Description:
It has been said that ‘Communication’ is the oil necessary for a business’ engine to function properly. That is why this webinar is so important and timely. In recent weeks, we have all witnessed how clear and timely communication can make a huge difference in critical situations.
This 60-minute webinar will be in three parts.
1. The first section will review our last webinar Store Directors Virtual Group: It's About Time.
2. The main section will focus on five key in-store communication methods and the best practices that make them work effectively.
3. The last segment will showcase 10 more simple, yet impactful merchandising and operational ideas from great stores all around North America.
Webinar Objectives
Store managers and their department managers will learn:
- How to do daily “Huddles” properly.
- The importance of a three-part break room bulletin board.
- Why one, “one on one,” each day will work magic for store morale.
- Why TEAM Meetings are awesome communication tools.
- And how a simple, handwritten note can be a wonderful communication tool that can make a big difference.
