Show Notes

The 2025 Gallup State of the Global Workplace Report just dropped, and the data is alarming: only 31% of U.S. workers are engaged. And in the building products industry, that means big trouble—from turnover to missed deadlines to failing margins.

- Why manager burnout is driving disengagement
- The true cost of low morale in construction and building products
- How to fix your culture, coach your managers, and re-engage your teams

Dan also shares how Platinum Business Consulting and Platinum Training Technologies deliver real results with:
