Has anyone ever mentioned "The Break Room" to any upper store level management or group or regional management? What did they say? Or did they talk to your STL and have your STL tell you that the "upper management" said that it was totally inappropriate to bring up the web site that I spoke of?
Or, maybe the better question is......has anyone ever spoken to way upper level management about "the team website by team members for team members?"
What did you say.....and what did the upper levels say to you?
A some weeks ago we had some high level Target visitors (5-6)...they were group leaders, a regional person, and someone else, but I'm not sure who they were. When they were leaving I stopped by the exit doors and mentioned that there's a great website by team members for team members. I said that the sight is full of lots of great things, very helpful and a wonderful source for information. I told them that it is a website well worth looking into and that they'd be impressed to see how it works. I did tell them that it was called "the break room."
I didn't get much response at that point of time. However a couple of weeks later I was with my STL and she told me that I was to be told that it was completely inappropriate for me to mention this website. When I asked her why it was inappropriate and should not have been brought up. She repeated herself and said that it was not the appropriate thing to say.
So, I'm just curious.....am I the only one to have mentioned this site to specific upper level Target leaders?
If I'm not the only one to talk......I'd appreciate feedback from anyone about their experiences.
