A panel at the Glasgow Regional Growth Summit on 27 April will focus on practical strategies for building loyal salon teams. The session, titled "Empower Your Team to Deliver: Building Structure, Progression and Loyalty," features industry leaders discussing real-world approaches to staff retention and development.
Jenny Storey, co-owner of four businesses, joins Fiona Jackson, founder of the RISE Programme, Alex Thaddeus, a salon owner with 26 years' experience, and Wil Fleeson, a trichologist with over 35 years in the field. Their discussion aims to move beyond theory, offering actionable advice on creating structured career pathways, enhancing leadership, and fostering strong team culture.
With recruitment and retention remaining persistent issues for many hair and beauty businesses, the panel's focus on practical systems and clear expectations is particularly relevant. The goal is to equip salon owners with methods to cultivate an environment where talented individuals are motivated to stay and contribute long-term.
This session is part of a broader programme at The Briggait, Glasgow, designed to support business growth and strategic thinking within the industry. The summit itself is positioned as a day of learning for owners looking to improve performance and consider the future direction of their enterprises.
