I focused our direction on these areas, to re-align the staff with the real expectations of the business.With many challenges along the way,many successes and some parts of tired workings and progression the store has recovered all KPI performance,customer service is strong and has a YTD average of 88% and feedback from company hierarchy is all to viewed positively.Sales performance has progressed on a upward trend, achieving better to forecast sales than other stores and a increase of 34% on last years sales performance ( In 2010 the store was closed for 6 weeks for a refurbishment,with this in mind a much improved sales performance) A 21% increase/recovery of footfall from an average of 7000 a week to 9000, this is through our work with the team and the customers expectation of our customer service. This was achieved through the direction,training and buy in of core store values through the entire staff and management teamMy management style is very simple,genuine belief in core values and the demonstration of this through clear communication,training and development of all of the team.This looks day to day as set of routines and through this framework strong positive re-enforcement of staff performance that leads to confident,well integrated and appreciated people working for the business and not against it Show less
