Question 1 of 12Behavioural Visibility

Which statement best reflects how behavioural issues are typically identified across your retail network?

What We Measure

12 questions across the behaviours that drive commercial outcomes

Each question targets a different dimension of behavioural risk — from shop floor visibility to organisational maturity. Here's what we're looking at and why.

Your Retail Behaviour Risk Index

How behaviourally visible is your organisation?

Based on your total score, you'll be matched to one of four profiles — from Behaviour Blind through to Behaviour Led. Every retail network sits somewhere on this scale; what matters is knowing where, and what to do next.

Behaviour Blind

Score: 12–20

Strong commercial systems exist without an equivalent system for tracking the behaviours that drive those numbers. Issues surface as symptoms — a shrink variance, a complaint, a slipped KPI — rather than being caught at the source.

Introduce structured behavioural observations in-store.

Behaviour Reactive

Score: 21–30

Your organisation already recognises that behaviour drives commercial performance. The challenge now is consistency, not awareness — pockets of strong performance sit alongside stores and leaders still finding their feet.

Standardise the coaching approach your best leaders already use.

Behaviour Aware

Score: 31–40

A genuinely strong foundation. Behavioural leadership is established, coaching is happening, and most of your network performs consistently. The opportunity shifts from whether you're doing this to how early you can see it.

Move from periodic to proactive behavioural observation.

Behaviour Led

Score: 41–48

Behavioural visibility is embedded in how the organisation leads, coaches and decides. Very few retail organisations operate consistently at this level. The risk from here isn't neglect — it's scale.

Pressure-test whether standards hold through your next phase of growth.

Every retailer measures outcomes.

Sales. Shrink. Conversion. Customer complaints. The highest-performing retailers also understand the behaviours that create those outcomes.
