In a retail setting, there are many things to consider to maintain a happy team and ensure that customers leave the store happy with their purchases.  

A successful retail manager helps develop a motivated team that is customer-focused and always has the department's success in mind.

The team will need to consider seasonal changes, how to display merchandise to make the most sales, and how to be security conscious to prevent shoplifting.  
A retail manager is also responsible for the customer journey while they're in the store. They ensure that every interaction with a staff member goes smoothly and that the customer's shopping experience isn’t hindered by the flow of other customers or problems with pricing.  

To become a successful store manager, you will need to upskill in marketing and sales techniques and product placement with POS (point-of-sale) displays, handle the best face-to-face communication and customer service and conduct regular training for all staff to help them understand the importance of their role within the wider company.
