During the store visit, we used a questionnaire that specifically designed for this project to obtain valuable information on various aspects of the company. Also we had in-depth conversations with the employees during the store interview to better understand the current situation of the company from multiple perspectives. Lastly we had silently observed the behaviors of the store employee when they were dealing with the customers in order to generate data for developing a comprehensive training program for the company. In the thesis, we had summarized a set of best practice behavior for each of the three positions in the retailing store: store manager, optometrist, and general eyewear consultant as well as for staff in general. It helped the company in developing a comprehensive training system for future expansion as well as for improving current employees abilities.
