In this episode of The Skillwork Forum, host Tim Raglin is joined by recruiters Liz Griffith and Mason Bogacz to unpack what makes skilled trades professionals say “yes” to a new role, and what makes them stay.
They discuss why money is only part of the equation, and how respect, career growth, and location flexibility are driving decisions for today’s workforce. Through real stories from the field, Mason and Liz explain how companies can stand out by listening to what tradespeople actually want and delivering on it.
Whether it’s offering upskilling opportunities, creating a culture of trust, or simply following through on what’s promised, these strategies can lead to stronger retention and better performance. If your facility is struggling to hire or keep qualified talent, this episode breaks down where to focus your efforts for the biggest impact.
