Hire and Build Your Dream Team

Presenter: Aleks Ozgur

Are you constantly extinguishing fires and navigating personality conflicts in your team? Burnt out from the revolving door of hiring, only to face resignations and terminations? You're not alone. In the past year, the turnover rate in the home services industry exceeded 50%, with 51% of employees actively or passively job-seeking. Every departure costs your company half of that employee's annual salary, draining resources and stalling growth.

Imagine if your team cared about your business as much as you do. As Zig Ziglar said, “You don't build a business, you build people, and people build the business.”

In this networking session, you will learn how to:

  • Build a foolproof hiring system: Eliminate guesswork and transform hiring from a weakness into a strategic strength.
  • Identify the right team members: Assess whether you have the right people in your business.
  • Retain top talent: Discover methods to keep the right people and communicate effectively with challenging team members.
  • Lead, don’t just manage: Develop the leadership skills necessary to inspire and guide your dream team.

Join this networking session to unlock the secrets of hiring and retaining a dedicated, high-performing team that will drive your business forward.

Don't miss this opportunity to transform your workforce and achieve sustainable growth and the team of your dreams!
