District Management is not for the faint of heart, at least when you’re a people first leader, and especially in the state that retail is in right now. You have company senior management lecturing about pushing teams harder to achieve results, all while more operational task load is being dumped on them without more payroll, but we’re just told to make it work. To those leading on the front lines in our stores, please know that not all District Managers are heartless monsters. We see you.

I’m sure your teams appreciate having someone who actually sees the reality on the ground instead of just focusing on numbers. Good leadership isn’t about pushing people until they break, it’s about supporting them while still finding a way to succeed.

It’s all about finding creative ways to support and inspire your teams. Do that and you’ll succeed.

What is your favorite Caribbean destination for a group trip (all adults, 3-4 couples)?

I think renting a beach house with a pool makes the most sense, but I have no clue where to look. Our priorities are great food & drinks and beautiful scenery.

I recently interviewed with Natwest and I got confirmation that they wanted to offer a role. Salary negotiations were started. However, now I got an email from the hiring manager that hiring for my role has been paused due to the ongoing cost of living crisis. He expects to resume the hiring for the role in Q1 '23 and would resume the process then. So is it the end? Honestly, I don't expect him to come back. But what do you think?
