Ok, I've been with Target now for 2+ years, never intended to make a career of it, but looks like it's heading that way since I've recently been promoted to CTL after spending time as the reciever.
A couple of issues I'm facing are:
So, any collective wisdom out there?
Thanks!!

A couple of issues I'm facing are:
- 4x4s, they're a pain in the butt. I get what they're about, and agree with their intent, but getting them done is proving difficult with the other workload;
- Poor routines in Market (and, frankly, the store as a whole). Any suggestions from other CTL's as to what you do on a daily basis? Very often, I'm covering Market and not able to delegate anything as I AM the only person in that Workcenter. When I'm not in market, I'm on the sales floor and can only periodically check in on what's going on there. Really do not feel I'm getting the time to "manage" the area and people and make the changes I want to and feel are necessary;
- What measures should I really be focusing on? I got to say, I didn't get a lot of training as Receiver and the "training" I've gotten so far has been Ad Hoc and limited. My ETL is great; he's been with the company for many years and know the lay-of-the-land, but I get the sense that he's performing triage, as well. It's put out this fire, then that one, then the one over there. We try to prioritize and identify our biggest Opportunities (Target-speak, I know) but making time for these results in having to play catch-up later on as staffing seems to always be insufficient due to lack of hours or lack of available people.
So, any collective wisdom out there?
Thanks!!
