A structured management team is needed

Mandatory meetings. More involvement with our district. More qualified associates

There's more managers than sales associates. No one is in charge.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Starts from the top. My store manager is never there. She doesn't know whats going on because when she is there, she's either in the office on the phone (alot) or leaving early or has appointments (tanning, hair, nails, eyebrows etc) or in the pharmacy. Only knows whats going on by hearsay
