just want to see what other teams are doing..
are your ptl's expected to do 40 hours of sets or scheduled outside the hours?
are your teams expected to push cafs? do huddle projects?
do they set sales planners? pull their own batches?
do they participate in a midday zone?
1. The PTL is scheduled POG 32 hours and HL for 8 (the weekend the PTL works is like this - Sat - HL coverage, Sun - ad set, the PTL alternates ad set with the PATL).
2. They don't touch CAF's, they can't even finish their push. They do help with FDC trucks when they come.
3. They do not set sales planners (we tried that once and it was a disaster, so now the TLs are stuck doing them without getting hours to do them). They do pull their own batches (and backstock also).
4. They don't help in the midday zone.
5. You didn't ask what the pog team is good at doing at my store but I figured I would offer it up. They are good at doing a half-completed job, fake ties, talking, and acting dumb when you question them about it. Of course I can't blame them (and I've said it at my store) when you give someone 200 hours to get a 450 hours workload complete then you need to let them know what is the top priority and what you can live without getting done.
If you are having a hard time then I suggest you make a couple of new best friends with them being the BRTL, Flow TL, and HLTL.
Ensure the flow team is sorting your transition properly, including repack boxes. Set early and have the flow team push it with the truck. Communicate what is and isn't set with them daily so product coming in stage (but is actually set) will be pushed.
You can save a lot of time if you watch your team and see how they are wasting time. It's unbelievable how much walking people do, cut that out and the time just got cut in half (walk from the tub at the end of the aisle to section 3 back to the tub back to section 3 now to the fixture room), seriously, put a stop to it. Stop them from grouping up with 3-4 people trying to figure out why this page says 1-p1-1 and that page says 1-p1-1 but in blue! Tell them to cut a damn box open and keep going. You can talk as you cut.
Now dek gave you some great advice (except that walking the vibe ****, **** the vibe). The only thing I would change is to develop your good people and cut the crappy people. Don't let them linger, don't try to change them, don't waste your time on them, just performance them out.
