"Good experience for Miskelly Furniture!"

4/5

What do you like best about Wildsparq?

The competitive aspect has been great for us. Training has gone from a mandated thing that we had to follow up on to managers waking up on New Years Day to get extra points for completing their lesson. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wildsparq?

The only negative feedback I have is that the first module seemed to drag on and did not necessarily foster team discussions. Since we have started out second module there are better discussions happening around the company. I understand the need for module one but I don't think it had to be a 3 month thing.

"WildSparq has enable our leadership team to grow professionally and personally"

5/5

What do you like best about Wildsparq?

Wildsparq is fun to interact with and use. It brings both ordinary concepts like customer service and expands our understanding to another level as "Ravings Fans." It allows us to taylor the lessons to address our current and future needs. The material is relevant and easy to understand. It was so easy to implement the program for our leadership team. WildSparq helps you with a kick off meeting! The customer support that we ge from Emmy and her team is amazing. I have one point of contact and i never have to wait for a call back. WildSparq is easy to use. You watch videos and read artitlce; there are activities that you can use to further your understanding and practice of many leadership principles. And lastly, new lessons come every month that include additional materials if I want to dive deeper into a particulr subject. I can interact with WildSparq contact daily, weekly or monthly. Its up to me how frequently I use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wildsparq?

I don't know that I dislike anything about WildSparq, but there is some content that isnt as good and I would change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If you want to differientate your organization with strong leadership and empower them to do great work, then WildSparq can help you get there! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wildsparq solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are a 75 year old family owned company with several legacy employees. We had promoted the best "doers" to be leaders but didnt give them the proper training to lead people. WildSparq brings a consistent language to the art of leadership that empowers our leadership ranks. Our President commented, "we are not just making better leaders, we are making better people. No matter if they stay with us or move on somewhere else, we are making the world better." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Wilsparq - The gateway to developing future leaders"

5/5

What do you like best about Wildsparq?

The classes are interactive and "fun". You don't just read what they think we should be talking about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wildsparq?

It does take quite a bit of time to complete the monthly classwork. It's difficult fitting the trainings onto our already full plates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wildsparq:

JUST DO IT! And as difficult as it may be completing the tasks, the benefits far outweigh the pain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wildsparq solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our first line supervisors and managers do not possess the skills necessary to lead our organization into the future. The reaffirmation classes on the WildSparq platform ensures that our teams are thinking about their development and how to improve their effect on our future leaders.

"Wildsparq has sparked engagement amongst our leaders and camaraderie within our teams!"

5/5

What do you like best about Wildsparq?

What I like most about Wildsparq is the ease of use. It's a simple platform to use. The videos and information are very easy to follow and learn from. It's also cohesive through the training modules in how things are set up, and you know what to expect each time. Plus, you get to work at your own pace. I also liked that the program doesn't just have to stop when the 12 months is over. You are allowed an extension to develop on your own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wildsparq?

I get regular feedback from our leaders who have taken the training and the one thing I hear the most is that Wildsparq is a lengthy program being that it's a 12 month commitment. That is the one thing most of our employees have not liked, but the ones who are learning the most and getting the most benefit from the 12 months are stepping up as leaders and showing the Company how staying committed can really put you on top. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wildsparq:

I would recommend making sure your leaders know it's a 12 month program and get regular buy-in from your executives. I do believe encouragement goes a long way in keeping people interested, and of course supporting them in their growth. If your leaders at the top are showing the importance of the program to the other leaders, then most likely the program will be more effective to the organization. One thing I have talked about incorporating within our organization is a quarterly touchbase with our executive leaders to be able to connect with teams and really engage with them about what they're learning in their modules. I believe this would show the company that we take this leadership training seriously and we want anyone signed into the program to take it seriously also. Another thing would be to share your leaderboard each month. Make it a game amongst your employees to see who can get the most points. If you are able to incentivize beyong being the monthly winner, I would encourage that as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wildsparq solving and how is that benefiting you?

Wildsparq is getting some of our Company leaders out of their comfort zone and encouraging them to engage across Company lines with other employees who they may not regularly work with. This is a benefit to our Company because it creates unity amongst the whole company instead of feeling broken up into the smaller branches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We will take your recommendations into consideration for further improvement. Thank you for sharing your experience with us!

"Excellent Development Opportunity"

5/5

What do you like best about Wildsparq?

The content helps generate great diaolg when we meet as a team. It gets the individuals thinking about things they hadn't considered when it comes to being a leader. The extra traning resources (Tedtalks, articles, etc) are very beneficial to help take a deeper dive into the content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wildsparq?

Nothing specific comes to mind. If anything, I wish there were more "real world" examples, but I feel the content helps pull this out for me to give examples from my past experiences and the experiences of other leaders I work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wildsparq:

It's a great tool for up and coming leaders to really get a well rounded view of what leadership is. It gives them a deeper understanding of who they are as a person, but also helps them take a step back to understand others behaviors in order to relate to their colleagues better. Not everyone reacts the same to certain situations, and not everyone adapts the same to change. This does an excellent job to create awareness of what to expect with different behaviors and how to handle them. It's interesting to see who fully engages. Witnessing their growth is a lot of fun. A lot of our participants lack experience with facing difficult conversations and holding people accountable. There is so much incredible content that helps prepare them for these challening situations. We have done a lot of role play and our participants have done a great job seeking the advice of other leaders within our organization. It's really helping them branch out and get uncomfortable in order to take ownership of their development. Some quickly realize what they are capable of and decide leadership isn't what they thought and may choose to go another direction. You can see first hand who is going to rise and who may choose a different path. It's very insightful. We are happy to be facilitating this type of training and have gained so much value from it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wildsparq solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's helping fill the gap for future leadership. Our current leadership team are about the same ages (only few years difference) and will all likely retire in close proximity. Its important to start planning ahead to get the right people in place so they are ready when this time happens. Also, as we continue to grow, will come the opportunity for additional managers. Since starting the Wildsparq program, we've already promoted two of the participants into leader roles which is very exciting. This course really helps open their eyes to all the things our leaders deal with on a day to day basis and helps prepare them for all the challenges that often happen behind the scenes that most employees don't even think about.

"Engageing and introspective"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Wildsparq?

Its so approachable. There are alot of videos and short articles that directly apply to the topic of study. I use the word "study" loosley because the material is not brought forth in a traditional "academic" fashion. Instead, students are challanged to look inward and apply the lessons to their own life. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wildsparq?

Old habits die hard and as someone with a professional degree there is a part of me that wants to write a paper or give a presentation on what I learned. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
