Summary

As leaders, we know employee turnover is expensive. And while that’s bad enough, becoming demoralized because you can't seem to find a solution is even worse. Questions like, Is there something wrong with me? and Why do I even bother? start creeping into your mind. In this episode of The EntreLeadership Podcast, we interview chef Shawn Davis, owner of Big Shake’s Hot Chicken & Fish. Shawn knows a thing or two about turnover from working in the restaurant industry. But at the end of the day, he still believes investing in your team is worth it—no matter how long they’re with you. Later in the episode, we sit down with Suzanne Simms, a Ramsey Solutions board member, to hear about how she uses friendship and vulnerability to create trust with the team she leads on a day-to-day basis. Remember, life’s too short to not be friends with the people you work with!
