Thanks to my neighbor Rudy - my staunchest critic and biggest advocate - for the column idea. As I pen this post from my garage office, I’m reminded of myriad conversations I’ve had lately with manufacturing and logistics companies throughout the OC and the IE. Ask any small business owner what their number one concern is these days - AKA what keeps them up at night - and universally you’ll hear…the lack of quality employees from which to choose. Doubt what I say? Just drive around and you’ll be feted with featured “now hiring”, “help wanted”, and “apply within” signs. One of our clients - who operates an adhesives manufacturing operation - has resorted to “bounties”. He pays his existing workers $500 per referral that result in a hire. His only qualifier is the new employee must stay for at least six months.
