Chris and I received an amazing text the other day from a former employee, which was confirming for us that next-level leadership is about leaving the people that work for you better than you found them.  We’ve gone through ups and downs when it comes to hiring and managing employees, but those lessons have helped us get really clear on how to build a supportive, growth-oriented team. Join us on this episode as we reflect on how to set yourself apart as a brand leader and employer.  IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: The distinct middle ground between team bonding and being actual friends Understanding someone’s work love language  Why it’s so important to establish normal check-ins with your employees  Our thought process behind investing in self-development courses and events for our employees Creating space for your employees to leave on positive terms RESOURCES Sign up for The Spritz newsletter at litepink.com!
