WASHINGTON — How much sleep does parlor supervisor Miguel Garcia lose at night, worrying whether or not employees will show up to milk at Double P Dairy in Marathon City, Wisconsin? None. On this Uplevel Dairy Podcast, we talk about culture, reputation and the gesture Miguel says is more powerful than a pizza party for motivating employees and getting 8-minute turns on their new 60-stall rotary parlor on this episode of the Nedap High-Performance Mindset Series.
What you’ll learn:
o Attracting good employees in a competitive labor market
o Hiring for attitude, not experience
