Why should you invest in leadership development?
Here are few interesting facts, 63% of millenials feel a lack of leadership development and only 5% of all businesses have leadership development at all levels. 10,000 baby boomers retire from leadership positions every day, leaving a gap in leaders. 79% of all employees quit due to a lack of recognition and development by their manager, and 52% of employees who left their company believed that their manager or organization could have done something to prevent them from leaving.
This certification aims to up-level your leadership skills while equipping you with practical tools and tactical methods you need to coach and develop future leaders. The curriculum is based on April’s book “The Positive Effect” and focuses on A.C.T, how to lead with awareness.

Even for the most senior leaders with a wealth of experience, the Retailu coaching certification provides insight and skills you probably were never exposed to before. It will deepen and teach you new progressive and inspirational ways of leading and learning. I greatly enjoyed learning a coaching approach based on changing the world of retail, one team at a time through the ACT – Leading with awareness concepts.
Anyone can use these in everyday, fast-paced and complex environments that are so common today and will be even more prevalent in the future.
You will also learn how to mentor and develop others. I learned facilitation and presentation skills and many other skills needed to bring my leadership to the next level. The tools and resources provided are invaluable; I highly recommend this program and am even more motivated to be the best leader I can be. I am so happy I signed up. Even better was the fact that I developed my skills with other retail leaders in the industry.
Retail is going through incredible change and shifts. It takes a leader, now more than ever who knows how to A.C.T. with a Positive Effect. The RetailU Leadership Coaching program gives you just that. I have been able to up-level my coaching, presentation and leadership skills be better prepare me for my continued growth and the demands of this new work environment.
