Creating a workplace where employees feel they truly belong is not just desirable; it's essential. This episode delves into the art of fostering workplace relationships and cultural fit, which are the bedrock of employee satisfaction and company success. I share insights on how building a personal connection with candidates can go a long way in achieving a robust and dedicated workforce.
