Today has been all about setting some individual targets for the stores that we will now be working closely with. The key to target setting (in my humble opinion) is ensuring that you incentivise people to really get behind the targets which is why we will be awarding prizes to stores that achieve their targets, we are planning weekly league tables and constant communication to ensure that there is a sense of excitement and that our teams are really motivated to do well.
Part of my day was spent in a supplier meeting and now I am (once this post is completed) catching up on emails before heading back down the M1 to sunny Essex.
