Episode Description

Recruitment and Retention are very hot topics right now within Leadership.

Certainly in Rural NSW there is a massive shortage of people available to fill positions and even more, the problem of retention is even bigger.

Why?

Because businesses are screaming out for new employees as they grow and expand after Covid and employees are now hand picking where they want to work and will think nothing of trying on an employer for 3 to 6 months and choosing if they want to stay or not.

Never has it been more critical to ensure that the people you are hiring are a good fit for your business and workplace culture, because if they are, they will be a great fit for the business.... but more importantly, the business will be a great fit for them and they will feel like they belong, and that is so important.

If you are not recruiting to your workplace culture, then you are doing it wrong and you will struggle to retain employees.

In this Podcast I share with you 4 areas that you, as the business owner and Leader, need to know inside out and need to drill down into during the interview process.
