In This Episode:
When you hire employees to work in your retail shop, you aren’t simply giving them a job. As a shop owner, you are uniquely positioned to offer career opportunities that better the lives of people in your community.
In Episode 208 of the Creative Shop Talk podcast, I’m sitting down with the host of the Stacking Your Team podcast, Shelli Warren. Through her podcast and in her role as a Leadership Advisor, Shelli has dedicated her time to teaching women how to build capable leaders in their businesses so as owners, they can focus on the higher-level growth of the company.
Sound familiar? Shelli will teach you how to stack your team so you can get your CEO hat on and focus on the growth and well-being of your business.
Shelli and I chat about:
-
The difference between a job and a career
-
How to attract and hire the “right” people
-
The balance of incorporating and encouraging your employees’ ideas and keeping healthy boundaries
-
Advice on how to have difficult conversations with good employees - even if you are a self-proclaimed people pleaser!
-
Unique ways to keep employees motivated and happy (Shelli has a great freebie on her website about motivating your team here)
-
What you should be sharing and not sharing with your employees
So let’s dive in and start stacking our teams!
