A clear pathway from
GM to Area Manager
GM to Area Manager
This is a step change, not just a curve to greater responsibility, for ambitious and skilful unit managers.
The Multi-Site Leaders Programme [MSLP] provides the insight and understanding for a new multi-site leader to expand and deliver on their own retail skills, and to learn how to support their various teams in delivering commercial success.
The programme involves four impact modules – each of which is 36-hour residential complemented by self-teaching, reflection and guidance from an independent mentor. Accommodation costs and all learning materials are included in the cost.
A stand-alone one day ‘Gateway to Transition’ seminar serves either as an introduction to the MSLP, as a taster for those contemplating the full programme in the future or for head office team members with multi-site responsibilities.
What Transition delivers…
Graduates of this programme will gain the leadership and team skills to overlay their technical retail expertise. It will equip them to guide and support multi-site businesses, and particularly to manage the challenges of now being remote from their sites – ie. hands-off management.
Individuals will become more confident in their new roles and will learn about managing upwards and sideways. They will understand delegation, motivation and team building.
Internal development will underpin the business ethos of promotion from within and help protect companies from recruitment uncertainty and associated agency fees.
Transition candidates will be from different companies and distinct business styles. They will benefit from cross learning and the whole industry will profit from investing candidates and expertise in this programme.
The Transition courses
Unlike other training prgrammes – the Multi-Site Leaders Programme is led by people who have been in your shoes. They have made the transition to multi-unit manager and seen the pitfalls and opportunities. They have gone on to excel and the leap to Area Manager has been the kick start of their career – let TransitionAMP be the kick start to your career
The tuition is led by highly respected industry trainers, Karen Turton, formerly Ops Director at Turtle Bay and David Pepper, a well regarded operational professionals and now the MD of Leading Impact Co.
The course is at Middle Aston House, a venue which will enable your candidate to immerse themselves in their development. The fee includes four 2-day modules all tuition, coaching, materials and accommodation are included.

The Gateway Seminar
This seminar facilitates the very difficult first stages of the progression from a single site operator to that of multi-site management. Whilst there are many excellent single-site operators within Hospitality, the skill sets and competencies required for multi-site management are very different. Gateway has been assembled with a very real understanding of the key elements that have to be considered for great multi-site management – Planning / Process / Knowledge / Behaviour
