Things are changing rapidly around hiring and retention of team members in a manufacturing environment. And so I had to get my dad, Al Frost, (he’s an HR professional) on the show to walk through ways to be effective in developing and maintaining a strong workforce. On this episode we discuss:

• Al’s 15 minutes of fame at the Home Depot
• The current hiring environment
• Creative referral programs
• Managing remote work flexibility
• Growing your career in a manufacturing environment
• Being effective when you step into a management role
• Developing your team
• Thinking strategically in your business
• Bridging the gap between HR and manufacturing
• Ensuring well-being across the organization
