This is a powerful episode if you’re curious on what takes to find the right people, keep the people you currently have or work for an organization that actually gives a damn about you.
In this episode we unpack:
- Why it is so hard to hire (+ retain) right now in the construction industry.
- What organizations can do to attract more candidates.
- How the current market has shifted vs the “old” traditional construction ideologies.
- How much it really costs to hire in the construction industry + the cost of turnover.
- What we can learn by looking across other industries.
- How creating an experience + being transparent changes the game.
- We flip the script + challenge the status quo to look at the interview process differently to find the right people + keep who we have got.
- Treat the process differently + the outcome will change.
