EVENT: Conquering The Challenges of Hiring, Retaining, and Motivating Employees!

Please join us on April 26th 5:30 – 7:00pm at Torrco in Waterbury, CT where we have arranged for industry expert Doug Dillon of the American Supply Association to present the latest on creating an effective system for hiring, retaining and motivating employees. Doug Dillon

The need for employees is generally a good thing. It is a sign of business growth and expansion and improves your standing in the community by offering employment to your fellow citizens. Unfortunately there’s one common obstacle that many companies face when looking to expand their workforce – all the good people are already working.

In the plumbing and HVAC field your employees are the lifeblood of your business. They are often the face of your company, communicating directly with homeowners and customers to understand their issues and needs. A quality employee will not only demonstrate technical aptitude, but also a knack for interacting with people and you usually can’t have one without the other (anti-social who is great at their job or a friendly person who doesn’t have the technical expertise to get the job done right)

 So, how do you find quality employees to add to your team while battling with these challenges? Join us Tuesday April 26, 2016 5:30-7:00pm where industry expert Doug Dillon will share the latest on how to conquer the challenges of building an effective system for hiring, retaining and motivating employees.
