Here are the key 9 skills of a store manager:<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Multitasking<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The long list of retail manager responsibilities requires managers to have good competency in a wide range of aspects. This makes multitasking skills a must for store managers to complete their work on time. They should arrange their time with a to-do list for each day to finish their tasks while also keeping an eye on their team\u2019s performance.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Time management<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Together with multitasking, time management is also a crucial skill for managers. Managers should divide their tasks based on priority and urgency to take proper action. Here is the Eisenhower decision matrix that store managers should apply:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><b>Urgent<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Not urgent<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Important<\/b><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do: Do it immediately<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Decide: Arrange a schedule to do it<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Not important<\/b><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Delegate: Assign the task to your employee\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Delete: Remove it<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, store managers should set clear objectives for the workload that must be completed within the day and block time for each task. They should also be able to eliminate distractions and deal with interruptions for themselves and the team.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Decision making<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A good manager can evaluate and identify the crucial factors to the success of their store. Since the retail environment is changing quickly, managers must make prompt retail decisions to not miss out on opportunities. However, to avoid mistakes, a manager must consider all information thoroughly and select what is important and what isn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Leadership abilities<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leadership skill is one of the most essential store management skills. You need to lead your team, not only manage them. A good leader processes excellent interpersonal skills like people management and problem-solving to unlock their team\u2019s full potential.

This trend indicates customers\u2019 readiness to return to in-person shopping, and emphasizes the importance of retail managers handling store operations. To become a better manager, you should follow these best practices:<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Set SMART goals<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>As a store manager, you must set goals for yourselves and the team. Using SMART goals and a stimulating reward to inspire the team to do the best:<br \/>\nS: Specific \u2013 What exactly are you trying to gain?<br \/>\nM: Measurable \u2013 How can you know if you\u2019ve achieved it?<br \/>\nA: Attainable \u2013 Is it genuinely possible to achieve it?<br \/>\nR: Relevant \u2013 Does it contribute to your values and long-term growth?<br \/>\nT: Time-based \u2013 When do you want to accomplish this?<br \/>\nIn addition, before finalizing the goals, you should talk to your staff to ensure they agree with the goals and how to achieve them. Furthermore, you should track the progress and guide employees if they need help. Great retail managers don\u2019t put unreasonable pressure on their staff. Instead, they provide guidance and encourage their team to keep going.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Focus on data<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Retail managers have to deal with lots of data to make decisions. Data offers a large picture of how the store is performing, and managers must be able to interpret the data into actionable insights. Some questions you may ask yourselves when analyzing your store data include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Which products have the highest sales?<\/li>\n<li>When should you reorder a product?<\/li>\n<li>How much are you paying for storage?<\/li>\n<li>Which channel has the highest traffic and revenue?<\/li>\n<li>How much does it cost to get a new customer?<\/li>\n<li>What is the forecasted trend of products and customers\u2019 preferences?<\/li>\n<li>Are your employees meeting KPIs?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>3. Adopt new technology<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>To become a better manager, you should take full advantage of technology to boost efficiency in operation, marketing, and management. Adopting the right <a href=\"\/products\/retail-management-software\/\">retail management software<\/a> will help you reduce manual tasks, standardize all procedures, and complete your tasks more quickly, giving you more time for important jobs.
