"Great resource for team building"

5/5

What do you like best about Wildsparq?

Very easy self paced courses that you can pop in and out of depending on your availabibility. It is also great to have quarterly calls with our Wildsparq leader to make additional recommendations and provide more feedback outside of the app. The Wildsparq team uses this as well, so they are a great resource to go to with additional questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wildsparq?

At this time, I have nothing negative to state. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wildsparq:

Commit to action and join, maybe as a smaller team. We have been doing this with a team of 6 but have plans to roll it out to our entire staff after the valuable takeaways we have had and experienced! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The course work we are completing have really helped us learn more about eachother, our communication syles and how to approach eachother when a difficult conversation is needed. We were struggling and holding back certain items for fear of the tension these conversations would have. Through the Wildsparq classes, we have all grown as a team and it is becoming easier to approach eachother when conversations need to be had. Many great perspectives that have brought our leadership team closer as well as new ideas on how to handle our staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Wildsparq has deepened the skills and relationships of our leadership teams."

5/5

What do you like best about Wildsparq?

The time commitment is not huge. Many of the lessons can be completed quickly. The group discussions have built a deeper connection between members. I also appreciate that Wildsparq is able to condense some of the latest content from experts into easy to digest blocks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wildsparq?

This is actually a small irritation, but the naming convention for the supporting documents that go with the lessons, is not standard. It makes finding those materials hard to find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wildsparq:

Wildsparq provides the tools to take an organization from good great, but it requires the organization to open to applying those tools to really exceed. Wildsparq has been a great partner for our organization to build and develop our leaders to execute extrodinary initiatives to move our organization from good to great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Many of our leaders are promoted from within. This tends to challenge our new supervisors with a new skill of managing people. Wildsparq helps us develop and equip supervisors with the skills to address that gap. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We're delighted to hear that Wildsparq has had a positive impact on your organization by deepening the skills and relationships of your leadership teams.

"A Great Tool Touted by Some and Utilized by Less"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Wildsparq?

From a practical standpoint, the Wildsparq website is very easy to use. It's up-to-date and reliable. I enojoy the videos and most of the readings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wildsparq?

Wildsparq doesn't challenge any of my ideas about leadership. In any given month, an idea is presented on leadership and all resources work to support that idea. I want discussion and arguments. I also would love to see additional resources for anyone interested in the topic. Books and longer articles that may not be suitable for the shorter lessons but may further your intellectual curiosity if so desired. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wildsparq:

This is a great tool, when supported by all levels of leadership throughout the company. When it's a tool that no one in your leadership team uses or sets their time toward, no one below them will invest their time. If you are invested in your own personal development, use the tool for what it is, but in order to truly use it to its full potential (discussion with others) it's important to have a supportive, involved team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Wildsparq has helped me explore other outlets and ideas surrounding a variety of leadership topics. I can search for Ted Talks, or conduct a generic Google search about leadership, but Wildsparq does an excellent job at providing those resources in a organizaed manner monthly. This helps me in focusing my efforts monthly on different topics that I can then engage my colleagues in and get their opinions. It has given me the ability to explore my own leadership methods and determine how I can better myself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Leadership Training We've Always Wanted"

5/5

What do you like best about Wildsparq?

It is extremely engaging and easy to use. The lift to get things going was one of the easiest projects we've done. The team loves the content and is always ready to share about it. The customer support has been second to none. Beyond the normal content there is a number of features that the team can take advantage of to keep growing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wildsparq?

The only downside we've experienced was not being able to push our team meeting past the end of the month. We as management needed to bump to the first of the next month and were not able to do so. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wildsparq:

It has been a wonderful experience for managment and staff. Wish we would have known about the program sooner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We identified a lack of strong leadership in middle management, we need our leaders to be able to make strong decisions and lead effectively. Wildsparq is helping our team learn to flex those leadership muscles.

We wanted leadership development that would help us retain good team members. This program provides a way to enhance their careers even further.

Creating strong leaders that can help further our culture and understand its importance. The Wildsparq program helps to broaden their mindset to think through things at a higher level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Get your team on the same page and bring new team members up to speed even faster!"

5/5

What do you like best about Wildsparq?

I love how the program is set up with large modules comprising smaller lessons that all tie into the module. Each month is the lesson, and the material is presented in different formats (articles, videos, short text / graphics, etc.). I also love the ability to go back and review lessons because it's impossible to remember all of the material, especially after the first year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wildsparq?

It is tough to find something to dislike. The only piece I do not appreciate is some of the navigation (finding where you were or going back to a previous lesson and trying to find it). It is a stretch to find a negative about the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wildsparq:

From the first month, it was a massive hit with our management team. If that does not affect your team, it's either your team is not on board with working through a program together, or this is not the right program for your team. If the team is hungry to learn then I genuinely believe it will positively affect your team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The program solves the problem of understanding people's behaviors and how new managers need training in this area before and during their role as a manager. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
