Staffing problems can destroy your gym’s momentum—and your sanity. But with the right systems and mindset, they’re solvable.

In this episode of Run a Profitable Gym, host Mike Warkentin talks with gym owner Chris Williams about the staffing chaos he inherited when he bought his gym.

Chris shares the HR disasters that nearly wrecked his business and lays out the steps he took to rebuild trust, create structure and increase professionalism.

He explains how he turned a gym run by friends into a real business and gained the freedom to step away from day-to-day operations.

He also breaks down his evaluation system, describes his pathways for staff advancement and explains how he approaches hard conversations with employees.

Staffing problems aren't unavoidable, but they are fixable. Tune in to become a better leader for your team!
