    An easy fix..

    Here is a radical idea. How about specialized teams to handle flow and the backroom. they would be much faster and more accurate. Never mind that would never work.

    Archived Any positive ETL stories

    Sending a new ETL from outside Target in LOG is never a good idea. You are going to under trained and unless your walking into a green process already you could be in some real trouble. Not, positive I know but, just being realistic. Hopefully you will be walking into a well run process being...

    Archived New ETL

    Your leadership culture is really going to be different store to store. With the huge cuts of the last couple of years it would seem that you would have to be on the floor. Not that it happens at some stores. Whatever the case is in your store as other have said, just follow Best Practice. It...

    Archived Replenishment Team Lead

    That sounds like a complete nightmare. They would have had to double my pay to even try and take on all that. Putting somebody new in role into that is just plain stupid.

    Archived What makes a great TL?

    Lead by example has always been my motto. My teams always knew I would never ask them to something I would not do myself. Also do not tolerate poor performers. Get rid of them ASAP. Nothing brings down a team faster than a team members or members that are late all the time, do not complete...

    Archived Insubordinate TMs

    You best bet is to seek advice from you peers. They at least have a much better view of what is going on than you can provide here. Also if your out of step with your stores leadership culture (and it could be a terrible one) then your going have never ending problems. When these people spoke...

    Archived Any other Leaders struggling with 730am flow?

    Well here is the sad truth. Those above you have no idea how to make this work. So in what is now Targets go to solution they will lay the blame on you and performance you out. That way they can say they are doing something about it. Sure it will not get any better with the next person but...

    Archived Problems with yearly review scores.

    This is why writing reviews has become a complete waste of time. You can not even write a an honest review you have tweek the scores lower because the store only gets X amount of money for raises. So a team member going the extra mile and a team member doing just enough get the same review and...

    Archived Senior Team Lead gets called out on.....

    The most that will happen is somebody may ask what their side of the story is. Other than that nothing will happen. Seen people use guest comments to try and get people in trouble before and it never works.

    Archived Getting a business degree?

    As somebody who has a business degree I can tell you that Target will never use any of it. All you do is follow whatever the brand tells you to do. You will never be required to thing for yourself when it comes to running the store. Even the coachings are pre scripted at this point.

    Archived Stl Blows

    Seen this many times. The thing is the STL will just claim they are driving out people who would not get onboard with the program and replacing them with real go getters. On top of that turn over has shot up across the company because it is the Titanic. It is going to take time. Sadly they...

    Archived Husband Got Orders (Military), Undecided about future with Spot

    Transferring as TL has never been easy. Now most stores are over head count and working on getting rid of TLs I would guess it would be nearly impossible.

    Archived how long do stl's stay in position....?

    They sort of use some stores as training stores. So new STLs that they expect to move up right away tend to rotate through certain stores. These stores have a new STL just about every year. In other cases your STL can be around forever if they are not a fast track. Then their are just bad...

    Archived scans with locs

    Well pretty much you have to make sure your entire logistics process is well trained and well staffed and 100% on point along with the POG and sales floor teams. Of course this is not going to happen so your store will find a variety of ways to cheat the system making the entire thing...

    Archived Calling for some advice from any ETL-LOG/FLOW TL!

    This. Which is pretty much the exact opposite of what Target wants you do. Leadership by example is an alien concept at Target. They would tell you not be working and to be leading, which at Target means coaching and barking orders. Treat your team with respect. Hold them to a high standard...

    Archived Performancing out

    They will coach you for eveything. For example if you were a CTL, they find an out of date, your coached, a vendor does not fill their location on a day your off, your coached, a week later they find an out of date, your coached, cleaning not done on a day your off, your coached, empty vendor...

    Archived How can I guarantee a position?

    The problem is that while on occasion these things tend to work out most of the time you are just being lead by the nose to eternal disappointment. Sadly you can trust nothing they tell you and they will randomly change everything on you breaking every promise they have made you. Its not...

    Archived Prepping for Reindeer Run

    Reindeer Run used to be an official Target program. You would do mass prep for the store getting ready then a mob of Group, District and other stores leadership would pour into your store. It was big way to motivate for the 4qt. It was always very positive with lots of candy and recognition...

    Archived Experience pay for TLs

    Used to be when you were promoted to TL you could wheel and deal a little with your pay based on your background. I have no idea if that still holds true.

    Archived I REEEEAAALLLYY Don't Like Carrots!

    The politics may have nothing to do with you at all. They may simply be hiring outside because they can low ball them pay wise for having no experience. It may be the DTL has a problem with your STL. It may your district like most of them is run by somebody who would not have been qualified...
