Team Leader Review

Allocating tasks, solving issues & leading team through daily responsibilities.

I have learnt the importance of focusing on my team's professional development in the workplace and also maintaining emotional awareness at all times. In addition I have found the content to be useful with regards to managing my own development and how to develop further.

I really enjoy the workshops we have on a monthly basis. Also I enjoy the variety in assignments and units we cover, as well as the opportunities to undertake projects such as presentations and team events.

I would say overall the programme is structured in a way that is easy to understand and individual objectives are made clear. Thanks to the online platform you are also able to see a clear timeline of what you have achieved and the next steps.

The training team and my manager in particular have been fantastic with providing me with the relevant time and resources I need to complete my assignments/training. However, being based in an operational environment, obtaining support from the senior management can be very challenging in busy periods.

My coach for this programme has been exceptional with having follow-up conversations and keeping a close track on my current progress. I have found that having professional discussions and progress reviews are very helpful too.

This course has allowed me to better understand the ways in which we can better manage our teams and also gain a better perspective on a variety of situations such as problem solving and collaborating.

There are networking events that take place with our community groups within Wayfair.
