HUMAN RESOURCE:
Big retail shops do not confine their target segments for employees to undergraduates. Shoppers Stop broke the myth of MBAs not wanting to go into the retailing career.
Cross Roads and Spencer also hire MBAs to manage their chains. However there still exists a gap between the supply and demand of professionals. Mr. Goenka, chairman RPG Group, hopes that one of the greatest challenges facing modern retailing in India is the availability of trained personnel.
In order to address the problem RPG Group has set up a national retail Institute in Chennai, which, offers a variety of courses in retail management for frontline, supervisory and managerial post. Retaining the human resources is also a major challenge for these big retailers.
The bigwigs like Crossroads offer high compensation and create a cohesive environment that makes an employee proud to be a part of such big retail chains.
