It's all in the numbers.

In our latest #PeopleMakeRoofing interview, David and I had an insightful conversation with Greg Hayne, Chief Innovation Officer at Hayne Coaching Group, Inc. Greg shared a story from one of his peer groups that left us all stunned. A roofing contractor was spending $1,000,000 on salaries and commissions for his salespeople, yet allocated ZERO dollars towards hiring the right talent to actually grow his business. Greg's poignant question still resonates: "You're spending a million dollars to get people to hire you, but no money to hire the people you need to grow your business?" This equation doesn't make sense. Investing in the right people, placing them in the right roles, and ensuring they fit culturally should be the priority. When you focus on hiring top talent, you not only drive business growth but also improve efficiency, innovation, and employee retention. A solid team foundation leads to better client satisfaction and long-term success. Building a foundation of the right people, in the right seats, that are a cultural fit and tick all of the boxes THEN paying those kinds of figures is a much more effective strategy, not just from a business growth perspective but also from an overall cost perspective.

Career Paths. Why are they so important? 🪴 Career paths offer insights into the skills and aspirations within the workforce. Clear career development opportunities within your organisation not only attract candidates, but also empower your workforce, increasing retention. When Stephen Hunt joined Gray Construction, he set out to help employees see a clear path forward. Not only did he establish Gray University to provide learning access to all employees, but he also established career frameworks for operational roles at Gray so that the people in those roles understood why learning and development were important to their futures and to make those roles more attractive to future candidates.

What does the future of Hickson Contracting look like? There's a saying I've heard many times over the past few years which really resonates with me. "You're only as good a your last job" In professional sport, you could consistently be a top scorer but the moment you get just ONE piece of negative press around you, like a missed penalty in an important match for example, that's what everyone remembers. It takes years to rid yourself of that negative memory. People are all too quick to forget your achievements and all the things you excel at. At Hickson Contracting, by treating each contract we win as if it's our first AND last, we demonstrate our commitment to the client. We are building a solid team of construction professionals who all have the same attributes: - Strong work ethic. - Always striving to improve. - Demand the highest quality. However, our growth won't be forced or rushed. Measured growth, without overstretching ourselves or our supply chain is the basis of our strategy to scale the business in the coming years. That said, we do have capacity for another new build or refurbishment project this year... info@hicksoncontracting.co.uk Photo Credit: Daily Mail

Any Company, whatever the size, turnover or staff, can only be as good as its people. All of them. A reasonably sound indication of the company ethic, its value to personnel, and its approach to family values is invariably the number of long serving members within the organisation. Those individuals that could have moved, and most likely would have had offers elsewhere, but still chose to stay. There are many reasons why you would choose to do so, and I know, it is vital to find out why that is. I have been conducting a series of face-to-face meetings with all our staff, both internal and site based, mainly because we have staff in all departments that have been with Glidefield for more than 10yrs +. I have found, though I knew it really, that communication is the key. That whatever is happening within a business, good or bad, is passed on. That the feeling of inclusion, the togetherness is maintained and progress or setbacks is shared. We will be highlighting two of our long serving engineers in future posts, so I will let them tell you why they stayed and the value they put on their service.

If the construction industry is going to attract new talent to the market, its definitely got to get on the ball about outreach and engagement. This can be done through a variety of ways, one being collaboration with schools and colleges. I remember when I was in middle and high school, they had shop class that I took every semester. I was able to learn some basic skills of carpentry that I still apply today (on a much smaller scale compared to yall). Second, we as an industry really need to highlight how bad ass it is to work in construction. Who else builds such amazing buildings that we all use every day. Not to mention, the construction industry provides competitive salary, benefits and the success of a job well done at the end of the day. What are some other ways we can get our younger generation or those looking to transition into the Construction industry interested?
