Second chapter of my TLP book



TLP brains @ work


We had a good dosage of TLP training last week. It was very interesting and kind of laid back. The content of the training was to help us hone our soft skills, how to ask the right questions, behavior analysis and team building activities. We were assigned into teams and had to come up with an initiative for the retail banking business. We drafted a business case for our project and gave a 10 min presentation to the trainers.

Training was not all work and no play.. We had lots of fun too :)

We got our location assignments for the 3rd and 4th rotation and I was thrilled since I got what I wanted.. So Dallas here I Come!

First week in my ‘new’ rotation has been really good. I am working on two projects for the Consumer Lending Group, Production Assurance team. I have already started contributing in one of the projects. The team I work with really helped me to get up to speed. On the very first day, my manager told me what projects I will be working on and in what role. He had all the reading materials ready for me and helped me reach out to the project managers. This was a totally different experience from the first week of my previous rotation where I was in a discover session meeting with 60 other people!

Hi Swetha,

Glad to run into your extensive blog on TLP @ Citi! I am graduating from UF this upcoming May (GO GATORS!), and I'm looking heavily into the TLP program at Citi.

Since your blog stopped at 2008, I'm curious how the years have been since then? and further advice for me on the current program? what you would do differently? I would love the chance to hear from you more, and will include my email, but if you are busy, I can definitely understand.

Thanks for all the info!


Steve
