PEOPLE ACADEMY LIVE FOCUSES ON RECRUITING AND RETAINING EMPLOYEES


W


hen we hear landscape and lawn care professionals discussing business challenges during NALP events, it doesn’t take long long before they start talking about “finding people to do the work.” It’s an issue that perme- ates our industry, no matter the size of the company, type of work or region of the country.


Enter NALP’s People Academy Live, an intensive, two- day learning experience with landscape industry experts from the Harvest Group sharing a comprehensive, step- by-step system that will help landscape professionals recruit and retain the right people.
