Retail Talent Acquisition Quick Tip - Part 4

In honor of our rapidly approaching webinar series
Employee Retention and Engagement 
with Tina Praino, we are offering our readers a series of quick tips related to retail talent acquisition. 

Quick Tip - Part 4
We know that employees are much more engaged when they feel like they are an informed member of the team. We also know that happier employees make happier customers. Keeping sales data secret is disengaging and harbors distrust between management and store staff. Sharing that data creates alignment with a shared feeling of accomplishment when the goals are met and a shared feeling of need when they are not. These are powerful emotions that drive the employee’s true engagement in your business.

Stay tuned for more useful tips and don't forget to register for our rapidly approaching webinar series!
