Top 6 Ways to Keep Employees Happy In today’s episode, Jeffrey L. Garratt, president of the Garratt-Callahan Company, is on the show to talk about keeping employees happy. In 2023, we know it's harder than ever to find quality employees and keep the top-notch employees you already have. 

Garratt-Callahan Company has been in the Garratt family since 1904. Four generations have dedicated their lives to providing effective, efficient, and safe industrial water treatment, and over the decades, they’ve found timeless ways to keep employees happy.

In this episode, Jeff Garratt and Trace Blackmore dive into the following questions and touch on so many more:

What are the top things we need to do to ensure the team is happy? 

What are the business workforce struggles in 2023?

What to do when you don’t have a lot of applicants?

How has the Supply Chain changed over the past 12 months, and how will it change in the future?

What are the lessons learned from lost accounts?

How should we develop employees?

How and why should water professionals embrace AI and remote monitoring?

Bottom line: Jeff Garratt is going to share how the largest privately-owned industrial water treatment company keeps its employees happy by doing the things that can be done at any company, no matter the size.
