The People In Retail Awards 2008
October 8th, London Novotel West
The 2007 People In Retail Awards were an outstanding success with hundreds of retailers partying the night away. Now in its third year, the Retail Bulletin’s ‘People in Retail’ Awards 2008 will once again recognise that ultimately, it is people that make the difference in retail. Teamwork, enthusiasm, knowledge and commitment to customer service create the buzz that transforms an everyday shopping experience into genuine retail therapy.
The awards will honour those individual employees and teams who have shown the greatest commitment to their customers. Recognising that committed individuals can only flourish in the right company culture, the awards will also honour the retailers who have done the most to empower their employees.
The awards are a great opportunity for retailers to see their staff recognised and rewarded by this prestigious external awards programme. They are free to enter, and open to all retailers, hospitality and leisure operators large or small and will be judged by a panel of senior retailers.
Does your company have a potential Store Manager of the Year? Does your company deserve to named as Retail Employer of the Year – Imagine how that accolade could help with your recruitment drive. There are 12 award categories.
Mark Higgins, editor of The Retail Bulletin (www.theretailbulletin.com), said: “Everyone in a retail business can make a real difference. Often, the spotlight is on the personalities in the boardroom. The People in Retail Awards are an opportunity to balance the scales a little by focusing on the individuals and teams who make a contribution at all levels of the business, including the all-important front line troops.”
