Retail Renegades: People-First Leadership

Can you help me out?

Navigating & Thriving in Retail Leadership

I'm sitting at my dining room table on a Saturday morning, overhauling my business - again. It's overcast and cool. The dog is asleep after his walk, and the coffee is almost gone.

Sigh.

Solo entrepreneurship is so thrilling, but it is also exhausting and lonely. I currently write three newsletters. Retail Renegades is one of them. The point is to help you navigate the retail industry and thrive while treating people exceptionally well.

With all this work I've assigned myself, I need to get very clear on what's working and what isn't.

Can you help me out?

I've designed a short survey (I promise). It will take you about five minutes to complete.

If you take the survey, you'll be entered to win my book.

Not just any copy.

Not the one you can buy on Amazon.

I'll send you a signed copy with all the stickers I designed to accompany it. They're pretty rad.

So, flag this email. When you have 5 minutes, come back to it and go through the 9 questions.

It would mean the world to me.

Your answers will give me valuable information on moving forward and a clearer picture of what you want.

​

My dog sincerely thanks you, as he is very tired of listening to me talk about newsletters.
​

​

​

Thank you for being here and thank you for your feedback.

Stay tuned, and I'll share the results with you.
Together, we'll craft an even better Retail Renegades.

Stay rad,

Kit

Here's the link to the survey again because, why not?

Navigating & Thriving in Retail Leadership Oops, there I go. I did it. I'm a crispy little French fry. I am Headed Toward Burnt Out. This week, I entered a rabbit hole we'll call rue21. I didn't know what world I was about to tumble into, but once I was there, I had to write my way out. Rue21 filed for bankruptcy and is closing all its stores. The real story here is how certain executives ran the company. The corporate culture was toxic hustle-bro mixed with vengeance mixed with incompetence....

Navigating & Thriving in Retail Leadership Photo by Almos Bechtold on Unsplash Walking into the store to close, I could tell something was off. The staff was busy, but the opening manager appeared to be in a panic. However, she was the only one scrambling. After I put my stuff away, I began checking in with everyone. The visual manager said he noticed she was stressed but couldn't figure out why. So, I headed over to check in with her. The day had closed quickly on her: an email from the DM,...
