Ep 176 - The Skills Test
Ever thought about the characteristics and finesse it takes to become a successful electrician? Sure, it's a hands-on job, but there's way more to it than just that! The perfect electrician you're looking for should be respectful, value-aligned and someone who isn't afraid to stand up for your work. These qualities, though difficult to train, are fundamental in creating a top-tier electrician, and that's what we're all about!
Got an apprentice in your sights but unsure about how to assess their potential? That's what our next segment is for! We walk you through the process of gauging their knowledge and experience, from identifying materials and tools to understanding job responsibilities - we've got you covered. We also delve into why integrity and accountability are crucial in our trade, and how a simple Q&A session can reveal an apprentice's understanding of the job.
And it doesn't end there! To wrap up, we give you a sneak peek into training simulations that test an apprentice's skills, and the significance of understanding code and customer requirements. But, the cherry on top? We share the importance of photography in constructing a training guide. We underscore that implementing these strategies today can have a significant impact on your future hiring process. So, get ready and stay tuned for an episode filled with actionable strategies and insights that could be the game-changer in your journey as an electrician.

00:00:02.306 --> 00:00:18.172
Hello, hello, hello and welcome back to another episode of Electricpreneurs Secrets, the Premium Service Electricians podcast, where me and my partner, joseph show up five days a week to help you master sales, simplify pricing and deliver premium level electrical service.
00:00:18.172 --> 00:00:19.725
Joseph, how are you doing today, brother?
00:00:20.361 --> 00:00:22.382
Man, I'm doing great, Believe it or not.
00:00:22.382 --> 00:00:28.388
The windows are open today and it just doesn't feel so good to have like that fresh air blown in on a nice fall day.
00:00:28.388 --> 00:00:30.707
It makes the whole house feel a little bit more alive.
00:00:31.400 --> 00:00:36.390
Absolutely, but it's also feeling a bit cold and I'm north of the border, probably a little chillier than you.
00:00:36.390 --> 00:00:37.783
What's the temp there today?
00:00:37.783 --> 00:00:39.149
65.
00:00:39.240 --> 00:00:40.484
It's been the warmest it's been all week.
00:00:41.167 --> 00:00:46.545
Oh wow, we actually did set some records here, and I don't actually know the temp, but I do see blue skies and sunshine.
00:00:46.545 --> 00:00:50.631
So I don't know, maybe I should get out, make use of myself, mow the lawn or something.
00:00:50.631 --> 00:00:51.944
It's a good way to do it.
00:00:51.944 --> 00:00:54.865
Yeah, man, otherwise I'd have to agree.
00:00:54.865 --> 00:00:55.426
It's fall.
00:00:55.426 --> 00:00:59.409
That means it's the season of tuks and shorts and flip flops in Canada.
00:00:59.409 --> 00:01:01.183
That's how we roll around here.
00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:05.990
I think what you mean is this, the season of apple cider donuts, which is the apex of fall.
00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:07.063
Yeah, there we go.
00:01:07.063 --> 00:01:10.429
Yeah, man, leaves are changing, things are good.
00:01:10.429 --> 00:01:30.584
I cannot wait to dive in some more from where we took off yesterday, which was more on the soft skills, the service side of testing your next service electrician and making sure that their values are in alignment with that of your own so that you know it's worthwhile taking a person to this level.
00:01:30.584 --> 00:01:34.503
More of the skills test side of it Are you ready to jump into that today.
00:01:35.024 --> 00:01:35.906
I'm down, let's make it happen.
00:01:36.748 --> 00:01:37.771
Awesome, man, awesome.
00:01:37.771 --> 00:01:50.367
So yesterday we covered a few different questions that were really again on the soft skills side, but it was, if we could recall and just review that quick there was make sure they're not going to take side work and that they value your work.
00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:52.545
That's 100%.
00:01:52.640 --> 00:02:00.927
There was how to actually state your case if you felt your work was perfect but the customer felt in opposition to that Correct.
00:02:00.927 --> 00:02:02.603
And then we covered.
00:02:02.603 --> 00:02:16.627
If the customer won't even let you in because of this price value objection which we know so many texts are facing and this is a common thing, because maybe their cousin's uncle's brother was an electrician and told them that it shouldn't cost that much.
00:02:17.469 --> 00:02:29.389
Yep, that one was particularly special because I always felt that if they're willing to defend the team, or at least willing to take a stab at it, like it doesn't matter if they have the right answer it's are you willing to defend your company?
00:02:29.389 --> 00:02:31.520
Would you at least try, right?
00:02:31.520 --> 00:02:33.987
Someone who's willing to try is always the person you want on your team.
00:02:34.801 --> 00:02:35.324
I love that.
00:02:35.324 --> 00:02:44.326
And before we get too deep into today, I just want to reaffirm, say this one more time hire for attitude, train for skill.
00:02:44.326 --> 00:02:53.560
That's why we started there, right, it's so important, so important because we can't really train those characteristics.
00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:56.848
I mean, think about all the inputs that go into that.
00:02:56.848 --> 00:03:01.250
For example, I don't know if you share this or anyone listening shares this.
00:03:01.250 --> 00:03:04.067
I fucking hate to impose on people, man.
00:03:04.067 --> 00:03:05.701
I hate it.
00:03:05.701 --> 00:03:12.002
You will never, not in a million years, catch me walking to someone's house with my shoe zone, for example.
00:03:12.002 --> 00:03:13.546
Yeah, that makes sense.
00:03:14.329 --> 00:03:14.569
Why.
00:03:15.822 --> 00:03:20.362
Yeah, there's the common disrespect piece, but there's also like they would have more cleanup to do.
00:03:20.362 --> 00:03:24.830
You will never catch me go for dinner and not clean up after myself.
00:03:25.823 --> 00:03:28.349
Actually, you speak something that you did that I love about you.
00:03:28.349 --> 00:03:35.284
The last time you came over my house and you made that awesome breakfast, I remember having to fight you to clean.
00:03:35.284 --> 00:03:37.907
I was like, let me clean.
00:03:37.907 --> 00:03:39.265
You're like, no, I cooked that clean.
00:03:39.265 --> 00:03:42.088
I'm like, no, you cooked, you don't clean.
00:03:42.088 --> 00:03:48.508
I remember literally arguing about it while our wives were just standing behind looking at us like just fucking clean the pot.
00:03:48.860 --> 00:03:54.024
Both of you, you both clean it's all good, you know there's two sides to that, though, right, I'm down to hear yours.
00:03:54.024 --> 00:03:59.572
There's like no, there's two sides to even my side and that is like the respectful.
00:03:59.572 --> 00:04:00.923
I want to serve you side.
00:04:00.923 --> 00:04:02.829
Don't want to impose.
00:04:02.829 --> 00:04:06.508
I don't want to come in your house, eat your food, make a mess and then leave you to clean it.
00:04:06.508 --> 00:04:08.556
That's like cardinal sin.
00:04:08.556 --> 00:04:09.723
This is no bueno.
00:04:09.723 --> 00:04:11.063
Right, we're on the same page.
00:04:11.063 --> 00:04:14.207
But also I don't want to sit there in awkward small talk.
00:04:14.207 --> 00:04:16.725
Give me something to do, man.
00:04:16.725 --> 00:04:20.569
If I'm just sitting still, then what am I going to do with these hands and my feet?
00:04:20.569 --> 00:04:25.526
I'll start tapping or picking at your table, or something Like I need a job, brother.
00:04:26.079 --> 00:04:28.447
You don't see me stimming like 24 seven.
00:04:28.447 --> 00:04:31.966
So like hey, if you got things to do with your hands, they'll just do it on their own.
00:04:31.966 --> 00:04:32.487
You know what I mean.
00:04:32.487 --> 00:04:32.988
It's all good.
00:04:33.771 --> 00:04:41.447
Absolutely so bit of a tangent, a little insight to what it's like inside of our heads and inside of our homes when we get together, I guess.
00:04:41.447 --> 00:05:00.706
But here's the thing you can't teach that, guys, I can't expect you to hire the best electrician in the world with no manners and have them termed out with the knife on the right side of the plate and the fork on the other and the salad fork in the right position, and no hat at the table and not wearing shoes in the house, using the floor protectors.
00:05:00.706 --> 00:05:03.884
These are all the things that are really difficult to train.
00:05:03.884 --> 00:05:09.658
Someone with no or little respect, mm-hmm, with no or little values.
00:05:09.658 --> 00:05:10.480
Alignment with you.
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:12.846
If they don't care about people, they don't care about people.
00:05:12.846 --> 00:05:14.952
If they're self-centered, they're self-centered.
00:05:14.952 --> 00:05:15.916
How do you fix that?
00:05:17.750 --> 00:05:19.874
Realistically, you don't, but they can.
00:05:19.874 --> 00:05:25.425
The only way that you can fix it is through the constant exposure to the right path.
00:05:25.425 --> 00:05:36.235
Like, you'll never be able to argue someone to doing something that you want, but you can't love them enough to do something you can show them through.
00:05:36.235 --> 00:05:42.536
Hey, this is how I conduct myself and through that this is an example that you can mirror.
00:05:42.536 --> 00:05:56.536
If I can go a little bit further with that, like, for those of us that may not have had some of the best families or some of the Best role models to go off of, it's hard for that person to grow into a person that Society would recognize as a good person.
00:05:56.536 --> 00:06:02.802
But when they get introduced to other people, like how you and I have where they're like, you know what.
00:06:02.802 --> 00:06:05.898
This is what we're doing, this is why we're doing and this is who we can mirror.
00:06:05.898 --> 00:06:08.733
That's where really the growth happens.
00:06:08.733 --> 00:06:12.041
So, in short, we don't change them.
00:06:12.041 --> 00:06:14.908
We can only expose them to what the benefits of change is.
00:06:14.928 --> 00:06:17.494
I Love that, I love that.
00:06:17.494 --> 00:06:37.904
And so, stacking the cards, really, the apex of what you could find would be someone with that level of respect, that level of care for others, that level of caution to ever imposing or dis Disrespecting or or taking away from someone, right even the time and effort and sacrifice pieces that are so huge to the value formula.
00:06:37.904 --> 00:06:42.682
If they have this piece just built in, okay, your steps ahead.
00:06:42.682 --> 00:06:50.810
Now getting to the skills piece, if they have the skills to to pay the bills, and that level of respect, the level of values alignment.
00:06:50.810 --> 00:06:55.610
Now we're talking about an apex player, so let's dive into the skills aspect.
00:06:55.610 --> 00:07:02.574
Sure, it's not a good ways to get that out and get better of the way, so you at least know what you're working with in the field.
00:07:02.574 --> 00:07:04.208
Pretty important still, isn't it?
00:07:04.305 --> 00:07:06.632
It is, and be happy to dive into it, all right.
00:07:06.632 --> 00:07:21.221
So first thing that you want to look at and I'm gonna go via levels of intention, right, okay, because I'm sure you've dealt with it before when you're working on projects, how someone would say I've had this many years Experience, and then you put them on it and they don't know what they're doing.
00:07:21.221 --> 00:07:28.702
Yeah, and it's frustrating for them, it's frustrating for you, it's frustrating for the team, because now you're all like, well, what do we do with this person now?
00:07:28.702 --> 00:07:35.475
So personally, I'd rather know where they're at at the beginning and Slowly build up and test their knowledge as it goes.
00:07:35.475 --> 00:07:41.413
So the first thing is what would an apprentice need to know, basic level, what do they need to know?
00:07:41.413 --> 00:07:45.302
They're really just an extra set of hands and a pair of ears that are meant to learn.
00:07:45.302 --> 00:07:47.677
So what would you have them get?
00:07:48.872 --> 00:07:50.817
Usually it's can you get this from the van?
00:07:50.817 --> 00:07:51.860
Can you get this material?
00:07:51.860 --> 00:07:55.192
Can you get this tool and as you're showing them these things.
00:07:55.192 --> 00:08:00.403
So the first thing that I recommend doing is going to your supply house and getting a material catalog.
00:08:00.403 --> 00:08:09.177
Then what you have is you've got a list of all the common use parts that you would use Most often when you get them from the supply house, they don't have names.
00:08:09.177 --> 00:08:10.963
Next to them they have the model numbers.
00:08:10.963 --> 00:08:16.002
So what you can do is you can literally say okay, point to a BX connector.
00:08:16.002 --> 00:08:18.937
Here's the page like point to a BX connector.
00:08:18.937 --> 00:08:22.396
If they don't know what a BX connector is, what does that show?
00:08:22.396 --> 00:08:23.663
That they have lack of experience in it?
00:08:24.490 --> 00:08:27.459
Yeah, well, materials for one, BX for two.
00:08:27.992 --> 00:08:35.289
Well, yeah, what it means they may not be having a lot of commercial facility experience, like, if you're not working, if you're working with armored cable reverse question might make a little more sense.
00:08:35.289 --> 00:08:42.578
Yeah, if I ask someone for a Romex connector and they've never worked with Romex, that would imply that they're primarily commercial.
00:08:42.578 --> 00:08:47.215
Yeah, so it's like hey, okay, you know your strut, you know your conduit, you know you're.
00:08:47.215 --> 00:08:51.096
Okay, you're a commercial guy, great If I can point out explosion proof fittings.
00:08:51.096 --> 00:08:52.400
You're an industrial person, fine.
00:08:52.400 --> 00:08:58.350
So at the very least it's can you detect certain objects and certain tools.
00:08:58.350 --> 00:09:06.885
This actually saves you in a big way, because I've ever heard well, I call it something different, yeah, we're not calling it by name.
00:09:06.885 --> 00:09:09.928
Here's a picture like what is this thing?
00:09:09.928 --> 00:09:17.003
If they don't know the material name, you can even ask if I wanted to do this, what would I need to grab?
00:09:17.003 --> 00:09:18.466
Mm-hmm, great question.
00:09:18.466 --> 00:09:22.693
Yeah, so that at least is the base, base, base level.
00:09:22.693 --> 00:09:28.398
If they can answer that, they at least have capability of being a gainful apprentice.
00:09:28.398 --> 00:09:29.120
Make sense.
00:09:29.761 --> 00:09:31.446
Oh great, hundred percent, great.
00:09:31.446 --> 00:09:35.076
Great like baseline test here Just to see where they're at.
00:09:35.076 --> 00:09:45.224
And many times I wish that test would have happened at the hiring room, because you get people out who with have, who have inflated resumes, inflated egos.
00:09:45.224 --> 00:10:02.894
Worse and it's actually Pitiful to watch happen in the field I've noticed over the years, because what happens next is a massive puncture in the ego and sometimes that leads to people leaving when you never even got to see their work, or if they were able to do or contribute in any way.
00:10:02.894 --> 00:10:05.106
It's all just ego driven.
00:10:05.106 --> 00:10:06.149
It's a bit of a mess.
00:10:06.760 --> 00:10:07.062
It is.
00:10:07.062 --> 00:10:11.504
And the thing is, I'm never gonna fault someone for not knowing something, but I will.
00:10:11.504 --> 00:10:15.159
If they act like they do and they don't, yeah, like if you don't know it, that's fine.
00:10:15.159 --> 00:10:17.475
I'd rather set the bar where you're at.
00:10:17.475 --> 00:10:32.489
That way I know we can expect, because I don't want to hire you at $30 an hour when you say you're a journey person and you've been doing this for seven years and I ask you for a band saw and you come back with a circular saw like it shouldn't be the same.
00:10:32.489 --> 00:10:32.909
Like what.
00:10:32.909 --> 00:10:33.851
I need this.
00:10:33.851 --> 00:10:35.073
You should know the difference.
00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:40.279
Definitely, and there's two other little pieces there that kind of go back to the values again.
00:10:40.279 --> 00:10:43.029
But it's that integrity and the accountability.
00:10:43.029 --> 00:10:46.533
Mm-hmm, and if anyone going to lie to cover their tracks.
00:10:46.533 --> 00:10:48.480
That's a break in integrity, right, mm-hmm?
00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:52.591
And for us, we've literally stopped working with people for that reason.
00:10:52.591 --> 00:11:02.700
You could be the best electrician, you could be the best salesperson, you could Promise to bring in a million dollars a year, but if you don't have integrity, you don't fit here.
00:11:03.341 --> 00:11:15.433
Mm-hmm and the accountability kind of ties right into that, with being able to Accept that you made a mistake, admit that you made a mistake and be able and willing to it wrong or right the wrong, rather.
00:11:16.260 --> 00:11:16.381
Mm-hmm.
00:11:16.984 --> 00:11:17.466
I love it.
00:11:17.947 --> 00:11:18.249
It does.
00:11:18.249 --> 00:11:23.230
Yeah, I would rather someone that's able to say, yeah, no, I didn't do this, or yeah, no, I don't know this.
00:11:23.230 --> 00:11:28.669
Yeah, and then you can at least have them prove themselves yeah, I may not know this, but let me do this and I can show you.
00:11:28.669 --> 00:11:33.691
So the next thing is show me, I like that.
00:11:33.691 --> 00:11:40.754
So the second stage would then be you have a typical picture of a job that you most commonly do.
00:11:40.754 --> 00:11:47.716
So it could be a generator, it could be an outside service, but let's, let's say it take a service for an example residential exterior service.
00:11:47.716 --> 00:11:55.734
You have a picture of your meter, your riser, your weather head, the drip line that goes across like all these things.
00:11:55.734 --> 00:12:03.594
Literally just go to the technician you're trying to put on, turn the paper around and point to things, say, what is this?
00:12:03.594 --> 00:12:11.092
Now, the thing is is that they knew what material was, but now, seeing it all assembled, it becomes a little bit different.
00:12:11.092 --> 00:12:16.258
So they may say like, okay, I'm going to point to the meter, be like what is this?
00:12:16.258 --> 00:12:16.919
It's a meter.
00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:20.730
You can go further and be like okay, well, what amperage would you say?
00:12:20.730 --> 00:12:24.105
This might be Okay if they know it's a 200 amp.
00:12:24.105 --> 00:12:25.501
Does that do?
00:12:25.501 --> 00:12:26.143
Just by look.
00:12:26.143 --> 00:12:30.393
That shows that they have some experience, because a hundred amp and a 200 amp looks different just based on size.
00:12:30.393 --> 00:12:32.466
Right, the meter itself can look different.
00:12:33.422 --> 00:12:36.837
The next is, I would say go to the wire that's going from your meter to your panel.
00:12:36.837 --> 00:12:41.480
Grant, I wouldn't say that directly to them, but I'd say where do you think this is going?
00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:44.552
Where's the next most likely places would go I?
00:12:44.552 --> 00:12:47.181
They might say they could say anything.
00:12:47.181 --> 00:12:54.919
They could say subpanel, they could say main panel, they can say it's going to a spice or a trough, or okay, they at least have a general idea that this is feeding something.
00:12:54.919 --> 00:12:56.458
Great, got it.
00:12:56.458 --> 00:13:02.842
Then, pointing at things like the overhead mast, be like, okay, what is this material called?
00:13:02.842 --> 00:13:04.821
What is the name of this?
00:13:04.821 --> 00:13:06.057
What is this doing?
00:13:06.057 --> 00:13:07.783
You can go even further.
00:13:07.783 --> 00:13:10.000
It'd be like how close to that window should it be?
00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:11.304
Like?
00:13:11.304 --> 00:13:11.745
It depends.
00:13:11.745 --> 00:13:16.482
You can always test them based on the level that they're demonstrating, and then we'll-.
00:13:16.875 --> 00:13:18.802
What I like about this, if I can just say, is like Silence.
00:13:18.802 --> 00:13:21.061
There's not even a training center involved.
00:13:21.061 --> 00:13:31.821
At this point, you've found a way to put it on the page and just test knowledge, but the knowledge being tested really is a thorough display of how much experience they've had with it.
00:13:32.482 --> 00:13:36.739
Correct, because that's why it's better to do the jobs that you most commonly do.
00:13:36.739 --> 00:13:47.623
Because, let's say sake of argument, they're a commercial person, they've got 13 years of commercial industrial experience and then you take them to a main service.
00:13:47.623 --> 00:13:52.654
They may not know 120, 240.
00:13:52.654 --> 00:13:54.962
But if you were to say, line to line, what am I talking?
00:13:54.962 --> 00:14:01.582
And they came out with, well, okay, this could be 480, or this could be 280, or this could be 277.
00:14:01.582 --> 00:14:04.682
It's like yeah, okay, at least they know something.
00:14:04.682 --> 00:14:07.860
They gave you something that explained where they thought it was.
00:14:07.860 --> 00:14:13.524
It's like no, remember, this is a house, we're not feeding a residential house with 277.
00:14:13.524 --> 00:14:15.717
Like, sorry, but it's close, you're getting close enough.
00:14:16.855 --> 00:14:22.379
But for me, in a residential situation, I would always ask what is the voltages between the two lines?
00:14:22.379 --> 00:14:29.822
Hmm, because it's like okay, what would, if you were gonna judge and say, what's the average voltage coming in to this service?
00:14:29.822 --> 00:14:31.645
Yeah, 240, great.
00:14:31.645 --> 00:14:33.230
Line to line what are you getting?
00:14:33.230 --> 00:14:34.580
Line to neutral, what are you getting?
00:14:34.580 --> 00:14:44.482
Yeah, I just feel like that really allows them to see what I'm working with getting them tested a little bit further and trying to point out whatever gaps there might be.
00:14:45.595 --> 00:14:51.663
Yeah, I mean it's also the basis for troubleshooting If you don't have that solid information.
00:14:51.663 --> 00:15:07.759
I mean, right there, it's not only telling you and maybe I'll back up and even say it's not necessarily a hire or don't hire, it's just an understanding where this person's at and where they would fit in your hierarchy of needs within your business.
00:15:07.759 --> 00:15:17.381
Maybe at that point, okay, well, you'd be suited to work as an installer under direct supervision for a little while until you demonstrate competency at this.
00:15:18.514 --> 00:15:20.120
You know, we can actually even mix it up even further.
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:24.501
Sure, imagine someone coming in and having every material figured out.
00:15:24.501 --> 00:15:26.039
They know everything.
00:15:26.039 --> 00:15:27.857
They're like yeah, I know this, this is the gas proof.
00:15:27.857 --> 00:15:29.118
Fitting this is an explosion proof.
00:15:29.118 --> 00:15:30.539
Fitting this one is your weather hub.
00:15:30.539 --> 00:15:35.599
Like they had everything down, yeah, but they couldn't name the voltages on a residential service.
00:15:35.599 --> 00:15:39.096
That may mean you've got your parts manager right here.
00:15:39.096 --> 00:15:42.740
This is the guy you know, like you don't know.
00:15:42.740 --> 00:15:43.722
He knows all the parts.
00:15:43.722 --> 00:15:44.899
How did he know all the parts?
00:15:44.899 --> 00:15:46.721
Oh, I used to work behind a shop.
00:15:46.721 --> 00:15:48.681
I used to work behind the desk at the supply house.
00:15:48.681 --> 00:15:50.918
I know what these things are, I know where to get them.
00:15:50.918 --> 00:15:56.220
Okay, that's a skill that we didn't know that we had, but now we know.
00:15:56.220 --> 00:16:00.421
So maybe I don't put them in the position I thought I did, but I take the resume.
00:16:00.421 --> 00:16:00.982
I say you know what?
00:16:00.982 --> 00:16:02.879
When we're creating our warehouse, I know who I want to use.
00:16:02.879 --> 00:16:06.581
Hmm, there's another opportunity as well.
00:16:06.836 --> 00:16:08.592
I'm not an electrician.
00:16:08.592 --> 00:16:09.860
I'm just joking.
00:16:09.860 --> 00:16:11.782
I said what an insult to an electrician.
00:16:11.782 --> 00:16:14.738
I came here to be your lead sales tech and you're putting me in parts.
00:16:15.841 --> 00:16:16.543
I mean, you know what.
00:16:16.543 --> 00:16:18.600
You go where the people's skill is.
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:19.583
You know what I mean.
00:16:19.583 --> 00:16:30.442
If you wanted a job and I said you know what, I'm posting this one, but I see that you're actually fit for position I'm not listing right now I think that you'd be a better fit here.
00:16:30.442 --> 00:16:31.283
What are your thoughts?
00:16:31.283 --> 00:16:47.538
It's like I could pay a parts manager higher than I could pay an installer based on skill, like if you could run my entire thing, order all my material, get everything prepped, stored everything in bins, clean out the vans Versus someone who's a year one apprentice on an installer, that person is gonna get more.
00:16:47.538 --> 00:16:49.743
Yeah, so if anything, it's not harmful.
00:16:50.591 --> 00:17:10.462
I've been on the airing side of this, where we've tried to make too much use of every person Because of the shortage and the demand for for help, again with relativity to more construction and project stuff and what I can say is that when our beliefs lie and what we encourage for everyone to do is to build this staff journey.
00:17:10.462 --> 00:17:15.364
Just like you map out your client journey, your staffs have a journey to right.
00:17:15.364 --> 00:17:22.481
You've got to create, as Tommy Miller, it's a win-win situation which really comes from seven habits of highly effective people.
00:17:22.481 --> 00:17:24.050
Stephen, are cubby, mm-hmm.
00:17:24.050 --> 00:17:25.914
You got to create win-wins for people.
00:17:25.914 --> 00:17:30.211
That's how you have long journeys together, when we can both see light at the end Of the tunnel.
00:17:30.211 --> 00:17:31.777
Here's our needs, here's your needs.
00:17:31.777 --> 00:17:34.951
Where do they meet this person?
00:17:34.951 --> 00:17:46.316
Even if and in considering what I said, to insult them with a parts management position, you have a good understanding of why here and they should too it's demonstrated Mm-hmm areas that we need for this.
00:17:46.316 --> 00:17:53.236
Currently you're not quite demonstrating competency in, but you demonstrated above average competency in these areas.
00:17:53.236 --> 00:17:54.604
That's why you fit there.
00:17:54.604 --> 00:18:01.935
Let's build a journey on how to get you back to where you want to be, and we're, ultimately, I'd love you to be too, just not there right now.
00:00:02.306 --> 00:00:18.172
00:00:18.172 --> 00:00:19.725
00:00:20.361 --> 00:00:22.382
00:00:22.382 --> 00:00:28.388
00:00:28.388 --> 00:00:30.707
00:00:31.400 --> 00:00:36.390
00:00:36.390 --> 00:00:37.783
00:00:37.783 --> 00:00:39.149
00:00:39.240 --> 00:00:40.484
00:00:41.167 --> 00:00:46.545
00:00:46.545 --> 00:00:50.631
00:00:50.631 --> 00:00:51.944
00:00:51.944 --> 00:00:54.865
00:00:54.865 --> 00:00:55.426
00:00:55.426 --> 00:00:59.409
00:00:59.409 --> 00:01:01.183
00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:05.990
00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:07.063
00:01:07.063 --> 00:01:10.429
00:01:10.429 --> 00:01:30.584
00:01:30.584 --> 00:01:34.503
00:01:35.024 --> 00:01:35.906
00:01:36.748 --> 00:01:37.771
00:01:37.771 --> 00:01:50.367
00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:52.545
00:01:52.640 --> 00:02:00.927
00:02:00.927 --> 00:02:02.603
00:02:02.603 --> 00:02:16.627
00:02:17.469 --> 00:02:29.389
00:02:29.389 --> 00:02:31.520
00:02:31.520 --> 00:02:33.987
00:02:34.801 --> 00:02:35.324
00:02:35.324 --> 00:02:44.326
00:02:44.326 --> 00:02:53.560
00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:56.848
00:02:56.848 --> 00:03:01.250
00:03:01.250 --> 00:03:04.067
00:03:04.067 --> 00:03:05.701
00:03:05.701 --> 00:03:12.002
00:03:12.002 --> 00:03:13.546
00:03:14.329 --> 00:03:14.569
00:03:15.822 --> 00:03:20.362
00:03:20.362 --> 00:03:24.830
00:03:25.823 --> 00:03:28.349
00:03:28.349 --> 00:03:35.284
00:03:35.284 --> 00:03:37.907
00:03:37.907 --> 00:03:39.265
00:03:39.265 --> 00:03:42.088
00:03:42.088 --> 00:03:48.508
00:03:48.860 --> 00:03:54.024
