How important is it to prioritize a positive company culture? When it comes training to the new workforce, it can make the difference between a company surviving or thriving. Join Todd and guest Mat Gates as they discuss insights on recruitment, retention, and the future of construction technology, especially when it comes to the need for better trades worker training programs.
