Are you struggling to create a happy and productive team? If so, there's a lot to learn from Woody Walker, the North America Sales Enablement Lead for Avanade. In this inspiring episode of Manager to Manager, Woody shares her secrets to building a strong and thriving team. Woody discusses leading a team of 35 early talent professionals, called the Digital Sales team, and how she approaches treating them as whole people, not just sales professionals. She uses a range of techniques, including Gallup strengths and Maslow's hierarchy of needs, to develop her team members and help them overcome their blind spots. The impact of these techniques is clear, with team members reporting feeling more confident and less like impostors within six months of joining the program. But it's not just about individual development. Woody also shares how she believes in creating a culture of mentorship and group growth. By creating mini-groups and mentors for everyone, her team members have a support system that allows them to develop their coaching and mentoring skills, ultimately leading to a more cohesive and productive team. Don't miss out on this opportunity to learn how to create a culture of growth and development within your team. Show Notes: Connect with Woody Walker on Linkedin

No matter if you have thought of applying for Mars or not, this is an episode which you aren’t going to want to miss. As I mentioned this is just the first part in my 2 part special with Mars, and once this has wetted your appetite for a career with Mars, stay tuned for next week for my interview with Andrew Sharp, European Head of Early Talent at Mars, who shares everything you need to know to apply for a graduate job with them, from the initial application to standing out in an assessment centre. A couple of cracking episodes if I do say so myself.  Now don’t worry about trying to remember everything you hear today, as a full transcript of today’s show and all the links we discuss can be found over in the show notes at www.graduatejobpodcast.com/Mars. From there you will also find links to all of the other 76 episodes of the show which cover every aspect of getting a graduate job, from help with interviews, assessment centres, to specific companies, to finding a job you love, to dealing with stress as you look for a graduate job.
