Building Trust and Community Across Generations

What happens when a millennial boss and a Gen Z employee tackle the complex issue of generational differences in the workplace? Join us for a great conversation with Daniel Felt, a savvy millennial business leader from Kura Home, and his Operations Manager, Garrett Olsen, who rides the line between millennial and Gen Z.

Daniel shares his unique approach of delegating and letting managers run the show while delving into his efforts to inspire the next generation. On the flip side, Garrett gives us an insight into the respect he shares with Daniel, and the challenges he faces while trying to bridge the respect gap with older generations.

As we move forward, we pull back the curtain on the struggles young technicians face in trades - using Garrett's experiences. Proving your expertise in an arena ruled by seasoned tradesmen is no cakewalk for young professionals. We discuss the importance of punctuality and the rewards it can unlock. But it's not just about showing up on time - it's about building trust and weaving a community within business. Tune in for an episode filled with insightful discussions and valuable takeaways.

  • 4:47 - As an owner the key to creating less friction in the work place is through creating mutual respect.
