Webinar Details The goal of most organizations is to have a robust workforce that supports the right people in the right positions and a set of systems and culture that keeps them excited to be there. In this webinar, you’ll learn effective strategies to achieve just that! The current reality for the fire protection industry is that there is not only an insufficient quantity of craft workers, supervisors, managers, and staff for available positions but also that the industry may not be appealing enough to attract and retain the younger Millennials or the upcoming Generation Z. This webinar will explore what recruiting strategies and assessments may improve your chances of getting the right people to your front door and how to retain them. Upon completion of this webinar, attendees should be able to:
- Determine recruiting strategies to attract the right people.
- Understand what primary elements to watch for during the recruiting process to hire quality employees.
- Identify the leadership styles that motivate people and create a productive environment.
- Discover the common mistakes that companies may make when addressing poor employee retention.
