Do You Train Your Team to Think or Just Work?
Every Monday, we hold a short training session with our team. We train on communication. leadership. & mindset. The reason being most tradespeople aren’t struggling because they can’t do the work. They’re struggling because they were never taught how to: Speak with clarity Handle conflict Lead a crew Represent the business professionally These tend to be the issues I see bottling up, either from our exit interviews or customer feed back or when things are misunderstood. Thats why I'm curious: Do you train soft skills with your crew?Building a Strong Team for Long-Term Growth”
I’ve learned that when it comes to hiring, it’s not just about finding people who can do the job — it’s about finding people who believe in the vision of your business. Skills can be taught, but work ethic and character is hard to find. Treat your team with respect, communicate clearly, and create an environment where they feel valued. The right people will help grow your business — the wrong people will slow it down. It all starts with leadership and setting the right example.”*
