Many snow, landscape, and service companies battle the same recurring issues: high turnover, chronic absenteeism, low morale, and inconsistent performance. These symptoms aren’t random, they are the direct result of low employee engagement, and they quietly drain profit, productivity, and leadership energy year‑round.

In this episode, Evan breaks down what employee engagement actually is and how understanding it can turn disengaged, reactive crews into a reliable, motivated workforce. You’ll learn how engagement drives real business outcomes , including 21–51% less turnover, 78% less absenteeism, and 23% higher profitability, and why it’s a foundational tool for building teams you can trust during peak seasons and high-pressure events.

You’ll walk away with actionable takeaways on how to:

• Identify the root causes of disengagement in your company
• Build daily habits and leadership behaviors that strengthen employee connection
• Create clarity, recognition, and growth opportunities that keep people invested
• Stabilize your workforce so recruiting gets easier, training sticks, and retention rises
• Use engagement as the backbone of a true Win/Win Workplace

If you want fewer staffing fires — and more people who stay, care, and perform — this episode shows you the starting point.
