Hi, I am April Sabral, Founder of retailu.ca and your number one cheerleader
On the left (first picture), this is me when I was a store manager at Starbucks back in the UK, and on the right 20 years later when I was the Vice President of a national retail chain in Canada. When I started in retail it was a Part Time job, I never dreamed I would be a Vice President and now own my own company, I did't even go onto further education but that's an entire different story, and if you decide to become part of our community I will share more about that later on.
When I was looking for leadership development for my team, I couldn't find it.
Just look at my screen shot that was taken of LinkedIn Learning below.
LinkedIn and Udemy don't have a retail course section?
Even though retail is the third higest employment sector in the world...crazy right?
Or if I could find leadership development, it was way to complicated long documents, and webinars that were way toooo long...anything over 10 minutes in the world of retail feels like a marathon.
CAN YOU RELATE?
I remember my one-minute meetings, huddle, dailydownloads when I worked in stores and thought if we could make some awesome leadership development courses that literaly are under 15 minutes how
beneficial could that be to retail managers?
So Jane and myself, set out to make it reality. We created what we like to call the fifteen-minute method. (or less)
Because we both worked in stores, and understand what's it's like to lack the support, tools and resources needed and also recognizing that you are juggling multiple priorties.
We wanted to make it easy, fun, and AFFORDABLE for you to learn. And not those long boring text heavy courses with too much information that you don't need.
We wanted you to get access on your mobile so that you can learn anywhere.
This is me and Jane, we met working in retail over 12 years ago.
Because,the number one request I heard when I visited stores, was this...I wish I had more development.
Here is one thing I learned, when you develop better leadership skills, you feel more confident in your life and job. Top Leaders are Learners, Top Managment across the world put learning and developing themselves at the top of thier list. Do you know why? Because succesful people are always growing. You will always find me reading or watching a YouTube video learning about something. It helps me pass it on to others. Now is the time to up level your skills, less retailers and the market will be tough and getting tougher.
Wouldn't it be good if someone asked you what you have done to improve your skills? And you said retailu online courses!
