Learning and Development for Retail

Training planned from need rather than from the calendar.

What this looks like in retail

The parts of learning and development that are specific to this sector, rather than general.

Store Manager Development

Promoted off the floor, now running people.

What this covers
  • First-time manager development
  • Rostering and manning
  • Interviewing and selection
  • Induction of new staff
  • Feedback conversations
  • Handling conduct issues
  • Retention conversations
  • Customer-complaint handling
  • Team motivation

The general method — what learning and development covers, the questions it answers and what an engagement produces — is the same whatever the sector, and is set out on the learning and development process page. What is above is the part that differs for retail.

Where to start

Most engagements begin with a review of how this runs in your business today, then a written process and the sequence to implement it.
