Don't miss out on our breakdown of the what is touted as the ONLY book out there for those who work in retail: Retail Pride, by Ron Thurston.

It went live yesterday and it's great overview for anyone in retail looking to add to their toolkit of books to help with development, workplace satisfaction OR just a little 'career choice' reinforcement.

We review the pros, cons, learn about the author and discuss some of our favorite (and most impactful) moments of the book as well as drop you some key info about a giveaway we are also running!

Sometimes the simplest feedback can send leaders spiraling towards snap decisions to course correct.

What’s worse, is when that feedback is about a leaders ‘style’ or approach to leading their team.

“You’re too easy on them”

“You’re not confident enough”
