If you are a retailer thinking of hiring, promoting or developing the skills of a buyer or planner in your business, then investing in them and the business by sending them to attend one of our 3 day pop up coaching workshops is an absolute necessity. Benefits to you, as a retailer are:

• By investing in the ongoing coaching and development of your buyers and planners outside of the confines of your business, you gain external knowledge and means test the competency of your team members.
• Exposing your rising stars to a pool of highly experienced retail guru’s and an experienced team of coaches from all over the world, including retail buyers and planners who are regarded as the “best of the best” by their peers across various industry sectors.
• Receiving a detailed feedback document covering all areas of coaching that your team members would have achieved and been exposed to as a result of their participation, as well as their level of competence in having attended the workshop.
• Gain an understanding of any additional coaching required in any areas that will lead to enhanced learning and greater contribution in the workplace for any particular team member.
• Reduce turnover of buyers by not unintentionally setting them up to fail when it is time to promote them or employ them. We reduce the cost and impact of that happening in your business.

We limit each 3 day pop up coaching work shop to no more than 6 attendees. This provides the benefit of a high level of one-2-one and small group interaction throughout the sessions.

THE BASICS: Training vs Coaching

Essentially training is about transferring knowledge while coaching is about enhancing knowledge & skills.

Today people have realised that coaching professionals are essential to facilitating growth & improving function and performance to gain specific goals.

We limit each 3 day pop up coaching work shop to no more than 6 attendees. This provides the benefit of a high level of one-2-one and small group interaction throughout the sessions.

Here’s a top level overview of what we cover in over the 3 days:

• An introduction to powerful coaching techniques that empower you to enhance your skill set
• Overcome mental barriers that unleash your greater potential
• Thriving and embracing in a world where change is the norm
• Experience the power of enhanced communication skills

• How to present effectively and overcome the fear and barriers to presenting to your suppliers and internally within your business.

• How to externalise problems and apply perspective and solution focused approaches to everyday scenarios
• And a few other surprises….

Each of the 3 days is interactive, relevant to the level of competence that is promoted for that workshop, and will operate in Sydney and Melbourne.

The venues are ‘Pop-Up’ for a reason as they are carefully selected based on their high standards and strict criteria around being unique, inspiring, enjoyable and practical spaces in which to embrace the coaching that is being delivered.

Attendees are capped at maximum of 6 participants. Bookings are essential.

The ‘Pop-Up’ Academy will run for a total of 3 days. Each day will run from 9am – 5pm with lunch provided, and an informal post workshop drinks will conclude the last day.
