    Abstract: A control circuit for a retail sales facility presents via an active display a plurality of leaderboards that correspond to a variety of different associate-level performance statistics. These statistics can include, but are not limited to, the number of products that a given associate picks as part of moving products from a stock area to the retail sales product display area (over, for example, a given amount of time) and/or an aggregated monetary value of products that are so picked, a number of products that are so picked exclusively from a particular area of the product stock area, a number of manually-created requirements to so move products, and/or a number of products that are placed for storage in the product stock area itself. Such statistics can represent any time period of choice including, for example, a particular work shift such as a current work shift.
