Cordell Riley Presentation Topics:
Using Mobile Technology to Improve Operational Efficiency of Your Franchise System
Since everything is being enabled and enhanced by technology, your franchise system can benefit from technological advances as well. Join Cordell for this session as he explores key areas in which you can use technology to improve your franchise operations. How can you expand training reach and availability? How can you enable your current staff to do more, as well as to do more with less? Since the younger generation is accustomed to looking to technology for solutions, how can you reach your appropriate audience?
Driving Business Results via Your Franchise Training Programs
Franchisors should understand that they must provide training to their system because of the important value and key business results that training can have within their systems. For example, training can assist in boosting performance and lowering cost. How do you currently measure the success of your training programs? Do you link training to your business key performance indicators? How do you measure the results of those that take training versus those that don’t?
Effective Online Training
When done right, online training can be a key component of your franchise training system. When done wrong, you can make huge investments with no return. As the president of a company that specializes in online training, Cordell uses his own expertise in the topic to explore the ways to have an effective online training program.
