๐ŸŽ‰ Had a great time at the Founderโ€™s Night Out event focused on Hiring for Startups and Scaling Businesses!

๐ŸŒŸ Some key takeaways:
1. There is currently a shortage of 2.8M workers in the US labor force. Employees have choices, and therefore power, when entering the workforce.
2. To attract and retain good people, employers need to find creative ways to compete. Wages are important, but not enough to keep the best people - strong cultures, benefit packages, and professional development opportunities are crucial.
3. โ€œPeople donโ€™t leave for money, they leave because of people.โ€ High turnover is likely a culture problem rather than a pay problem. Find ways to listen and learn from your employees to build a great place to work.
