Retail Management Simulations

 

An Immersive Hands-On Learning Experience

Our Retail Management Simulations are designed specifically for developing the commercial awareness & capability of managers within the retail sector.

The simulations provide a powerful and engaging learning experience set in the context of the current retail environment. Participants develop new skills and insights around what it takes to manage a successful retail operation in today’s competitive marketplace.

Participants will manage and lead a retail operation making key commercial and leadership decisions during each round. They’ll use their best abilities to analyse the situation, plan their strategy and make the best decisions to improve performance.

A Powerful & Fun Learning Experience

During each round of the Retail Simulation participants will make key decisions in all the critical areas of the operation, including marketing, promotions, propositions, sales, stock management, staff management, store management, overheads and managing the P&L. The dynamic nature of our simulations enables participants to see the true impact of each decision and how it impacts all elements of the retail operation and also the overall business performance.
