Elevating Store Leadership Across Target. We are proud to highlight Target’s Store Director Development Program (SDDP), a leadership experience built to help store directors lead with confidence in an ever-evolving retail environment. SDDP blends in-person workshops, guided peer groups, digital learning and on-the-job applications to build skills. When developing Target’s SDDP program, our L&D team used a learner centered approach by partnering with leaders at the outset to define their development needs, engaging them throughout to evaluate ideas and guide design decisions, and ensuring every topic and activity reflected the real world challenges they face each day. Now available to nearly 2,000 store directors across the country, SDDP has also earned a Brandon Hall Group Gold award for Best Unique or Innovative Leadership Development Program. “The store director development program gave me a support system I needed to feel confident... Whether it's asking questions around new processes, new ideas, or having a laugh about a funny store moment, these peers and new friends make me feel ready to tackle each day and lead our teams to success.” -Malcolm O., King of Prussia PA Store Director Learn how Target invests in developing talent and creating long-term career growth for team members at every level here: https://corporate.target.com/careers/growth-and-development?utm_source=linkedinindeedglassdoor&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=continuedgrowth&utm_content=sddp

Energy. Belonging. Growth. Fernando has spent 29 years at Target, and his story is rooted in people. He believes the best teams are built on a strong combination of support and shared learning. Every culture adds something. Every team member has something to teach. Coming in as a Lead Warehouse Worker in 1996, Fernando has now developed into an Operations Manager. Fernando takes pride in who he is while staying curious about others. That openness fuels stronger connections and better work. Though his career has been rooted at one facility—our Fridley, MN distribution center—Fernando’s experience has shaped a dynamic perspective on growth: “Opportunities are always there. If you really want to keep growing, you can... I encourage everybody to join us.” -Fernando R. Fernando’s story is a reminder that long careers are built on purpose, community, and the belief that people make the difference. Hear more from Fernando and his experience below.
From School Spirit to Community Impact: Blue Grass Elementary Shows the Love It started with a “We Love Target” school spirit day at Blue Grass Elementary in Davenport, Iowa. More than 200 students showed up in Target Red to celebrate the impact our T-533 Davenport store has on their community. So we showed up for them. At a special Valentine’s Day assembly, Bullseye and our T-533 store team surprised students and staff with Bullseye plushies and their own Target name tags. Gabby C., district senior director, Group 196, joined the celebration and presented a 10,000 dollar donation to the local chapter of Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, along with a Target GiftCard for the school. “The communities we serve are at the heart of why we do what we do. Moments like today are a powerful reminder that our work truly matters.” – Gabby C., district senior director This is what it looks like to lead with care. Strong community partnerships. Real investment. Joy that goes both ways.
T“winning” Together in Tech... Now say that five times fast. Identical twins Mike and Chad both started their Target journeys the same way: a job fair leading to a role in Target RedCard Services. From there, their paths evolved in different ways but kept circling back to growth, relationship building, and the ever-evolving world of tech. Mike has a total of 29 years with Target experience, and has moved through multiple roles, guided by strong mentorship that helped him find his way into tech. As Mike puts it, “Working with Target opened the door to a career in tech, while also giving me opportunities to collaborate across teams and build meaningful connections nationwide.” When we asked Chad about the complexities of working with family, he provided wisdom: “Separating work and family is tricky – you have to learn to set boundaries. We also must focus on carving out our own identities at work. We support each other but also want to grow independently at Target. The key is communication and mutual respect. When one of us succeeds, we both do. When one struggles, we lean into mentorship.” Today, they work on the same team in HiTech. Mike and Chad’s story is a reminder to us all that careers are rarely linear and that sometimes... the best peer is also your twin.

What advice would you give a new team member who wants to grow with the company? "Never be afraid to ask questions and build relationships. Curiosity helps foster growth and understanding of the business and can sometimes spark change. Get to know your team, mentors, and leaders early on. They are your support squad and will be with you on your journey. You can never have too many people on your side." Looking back, what moment or milestone best represents your journey at Target? "One of my biggest moments in Target was when I was promoted from Senior Team Leader to Executive Team Leader. I remember how my leaders, all the way up to the group level, celebrated with me. I remember thinking of the work and development that went into this and how awesome it felt to be recognized in that moment." Tell me about one of your biggest learnings as a leader at Target.
