15th April 2011

USA - Optimizing Retail Business Exec Education IESE program details

The retail sector has become increasingly sophisticated and complex in recent years.

High customer expectations, the expansion of hard discounters and the growth of private labels are just a few of the challenges faced by both retailers and manufacturers.

Meanwhile, two key trends – product proliferation and decreasing life cycles – are putting even more pressure on retail operations.

 

Successful retail businesses today, including FMCG, apparel and other retail sectors, all share one common element: excellence in operations and customer service.

The IESE Business School will offer the Short Focused Program Optimizing Your Retail Business: Best-in-Class Operations and Customer Service, June 1-2, 2011.

The Academic Director of the Program Optimizing Your Retail Business: Best-in-Class Operations and Customer Service is IESE Business School Professor Marc Sachon.

The course is designed for senior managers who want to gain a deeper understanding of the key value drivers behind the operations in their retail business. The program will address these main areas:

- New retail models and smart management of working capital: Employ the right supply chain with the right retail strategy while managing your working capital in the most efficient manner.

- The renaissance of the shopper: Offer the best products at the best time with the best service and gain superior margins as a result.

- The hard discount model (HDM): Identify the key elements of the HDM and determine the implications for operations strategy and day-to-day operations.

- The atomization of demand: Harness behavioral data and create new value propositions for your customers.
