Five WFM myths. Three retailers. One honest conversation.

Hear from a panel of senior workforce leaders from across UK retail, as they share what scheduling actually looks and feels like from the inside. From the decisions that made the difference, the moments that surprised them, and the gains that never showed up in the original business case.

Watch an unscripted conversation recorded live at Rotageek's latest event, The Shift 2026 - where workforce leaders from Pets at Home, Screwfix and The White Company got honest about what building schedules that work actually looks like from the inside.

Why watch?

Hear the moments where “technically right” scheduling advice turned out to be humanly wrong

Find out which workforce myths these retailers busted - and which ones turned out to be true

Walk away with a sharper question to bring back to your own team: what decisions are you making today that you'll thank yourself for in five years?

Can one system fit all types of workforce? Workforce technology isn't the endpoint. It's the tool that lets people - managers and colleagues - make better decisions about their own time.

The myths we're busting

The myth What three retailers found
01 “One system can solve every workforce challenge”
A system can produce a technically perfect rota and still get it humanly wrong
02 “If the forecast is accurate, managers will just follow it”
Forecasts are only ever as good as the humanity layered on top of them
03 “Once the system has gone live, the hard work is done”
Launching is just the beginning - the real fine-tuning and reward come later
04 “Better scheduling always means fewer hours”
Efficiency gains don't always show up as fewer hours; sometimes they show up as the confidence to add more, in the right place
05 “The return on workforce management is purely operational”
The clearest return on investment is often the one that never makes it into the business case: how people feel about coming to work
