Leadership Training

To grow brick-and-mortar stores, you need solid operational infrastructure and leaders who help their teams develop their strengths. Leverage one of our StrengthsFinder (Gallup) or SLII (Situational Leadership) workshops to help your team learn and use their strengths.

“Teams that focus on strengths every day have 12.5% greater productivity.”

– Gallup

SLII Concepts teach what it means to lead situationally. That means giving people the right support or direction at the right time, having authentic conversations that empower them, and caring about their growth. SLII Concepts introduces the art of diagnosing an individual’s or team’s development level and then using the appropriate leadership style in response.

The work gets done! We create the content in collaboration with your team.

Step 4: Deliver

We deliver the completed work and train your store teams.

Step 5: Support

We’ve got your back with ongoing support as needed. This includes store visits with your leaders to review operations, discover what else is required, and more.
