Belk big wigs said they don’t want any interaction with associates and minimal interaction with managers. Store visits are to be kept to a thirty minute maximum time frame, Don will be surrounded by his assistants and will be unapproachable except for the photo op that is always taken giving a thumbs up or number one salute which will undoubtedly find its way on RVP linkedn profiles.
At the end of the visit, store managers will be taken into an office or outdoors where you will hear a loud cheer, a way for belk corporate to acknowledge that some made up metric was achieved.
Don and his entourage will get into their black Cadillac Escalade SUV’s and drive into the sunset
And that’s how our company plans and executes corporate visits. 🤷♀️
