Retail Leadership with Steve Worthy
Retail leadership isn’t what it used to be — and neither are you.
After 30+ years of navigating the realities of store floors, boardrooms, restructures, and reinventions, I’ve learned this: the gap between what retail leaders need to grow and what companies actually provide is wider than ever. Promotions don’t come with clarity. Expectations rise, but context disappears. And while the metrics may shift, the pressure never does.
This podcast is for the retail leader who's already proven themselves — and still wants more.
This podcast is for the experienced retail leader who wants more — not more work, but more direction, more insight, and more impact.
I'm Steve Worthy — retail executive coach and founder of Worthy Retail Global. I’ve coached and developed thousands of leaders over three decades, and I created this podcast to give you the straight, strategic guidance I wish I had earlier in my career.
You’ve earned your position. Now let’s make sure you lead like it.
Retail Leadership with Steve Worthy
THE LAW OF LEGACY
What are you doing in your life right now to leave a lasting legacy?
As retail leaders, we are often so focused on our daily responsibilities that we fail to consider the long-term impact we may have on others, particularly our team.
Listen in and learn as we talk about the Law of Legacy!
Key Highlights:
[00:01] How your legacy is being developed and curated daily
[02:05] Do you need to be liked as a leader?
[05:18] What Steve wanted to leave as a legacy
[08:12] The importance of having a strong team
[10:02] The power of being present in your life
[11:21] Your legacy is not just about you; it’s supposed to be bigger than you.

[14:17] How do you start to think about your legacy?
Notable Quotes:
- Your legacy is being developed and curated daily by your actions, your intentions, your relationships, your achievements, your failures, and those you lead.
- I wanted to be able to unashamedly speak to retail leaders about where they currently are in their journey.
- To be able to walk into a store, feel the energy, and also to see things that you possibly put into place that are still operating is such a cool feeling. That is a legacy feeling!
- A lot of times, we think about legacy as meaning us and who we are. But to be very honest, your legacy is bigger than you.
- When you start to think about your legacy, you have to make sure that your personal life, and your personal legacy, match, to some degree, your professional legacy.
- The best leaders that I know they're very similar in how they lead themselves personally and how they lead their teams.
