In this episode of Survive, Mike Hernandez explains why Assistant Managers must explicitly delegate hourly exterior maintenance to their sales associates and visually verify the execution to prevent customer frustration at the fuel pumps. What You Will Learn: Mike's Professional Background: Why attempting to execute every physical task yourself destroys your ability to control the interior transaction flow. The Anchoring Failure: Why allowing your sales associates to hide behind the cash register directly causes exterior equipment failures and lost revenue. The Delegation Protocol: The exact, specific instructions you must issue to your staff regarding the physical supplies they must take outside. The Verification Protocol: How to evaluate returned supplies and execute visual inspections from the front doors to hold your employees accountable.
