•Article: The State Of The Store Manager 2008 Benchmark Report
By Matt Pillar, Integrated Solutions For Retailers magazine
Integrated Solutions For Retailers is proud to bring you the 2008 edition of The State Of The Store Manager report. We began this project in 2006 to uncover store-level attitudes on the core technologies our corporate readership is responsible for purchasing and implementing. Our intent is to give you a rich understanding of the mindset of your store managers as it relates to the technology and systems initiatives you deploy..
This year's report marked some interesting shifts, especially in the areas of workforce and workload management. Managers are working longer hours, having a harder time finding qualified employees, and getting smaller labor budgets to work with. On the other hand, this year's study shows some modest gains in store managers' willingness to embrace technology.
Whether the data presented here helps explain the success of your initiatives or the lack thereof, we trust you'll be intrigued and enlightened by the study's findings.
I'm happy to thank Integrated Solutions For Retailers supporter Sprint for its sponsorship of the report. Without Sprint's support, we would be unable to produce this one-of-a-kind research.
Make no mistake, the store manager can make or break store-level implementation success. I trust this report will help you ensure the former and avoid the latter.
