How do you go about training a new hire? If it is anything like the experience I got, it was discombobulated, unorganized and just tasks assigned as they came up. If there wasn't something for me to do, then I was told to watch. This experience is probably pretty similar to a lot of you. This however, is no way to train someone.

Mark Herakovic is the Installation Training Manager at MDG Flooring and has designed an actual program to bring up apprentices in a short amount of time and organized fashion. Gavin Swanson is his first trainee and has been able to succeed at his position not only because of the training he is getting but because of the support and culture behind him.

This week on the Floor Academy Podcast we will discuss building and implementing an actual training program in to your business, how to get quality feedback from trainees, and how to keep them excited. Don't miss this chance to learn how to build something to really separate your business from the others in our industry.
