Most problems on the retail floor are not staff problems. They are tool problems.
If your team cannot do the job, look at what they are working with.
Ask yourself:•
Do they have clear procedures•
Do they have fast access to product knowledge•
Do they have training that matches real tasks•
Do they know what good looks like•
Do they understand the goals for the day•
Do they have working equipment that saves time, not wastes it

Strong teams grow when managers remove friction.
Give them tools that help them work smarter, not harder.

Tell your team what you expect.
Then give them the tools to hit the target.
