Obtaining a High Quality Workforce within the Retail Channel 
Sunday, October 5 | 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM 
Location: S401a 
Handout(s):  

Jim Collins highly successful book “Good To Great”, said it well: “Get the right people on the bus, the wrong people off the bus, and the right people in the right seats” and “People are not your greatest asset, the right people are!” If there was ever a time to “Get the right people on your bus” now is the time. In today’s market with razor thin margins, escalating credit card fees, hypermarkets, aggressive fuel discounting driving their increased market share, and consumer frustration over $4.00/gallon gas, retailers must field the best team at all levels to compete and remain profitable. How do you know if you have the right people? Learn how to start getting a return on your human capital investment. This seminar is not about incentives and motivation strategies to get the right behaviors out of the wrong people. This session is designed to help you get the right people in the first place.
