I read this book last week and just had a big breakthrough while reflecting on it. A lot of my other business owner friends, they're worried about attracting new talent into their company and then retaining it. Like, how do you keep those people engaged with your business? In reflecting on this book, Capture the Culture by Aaron Krueger, I found the answer is culture. If you have an amazing culture that people want to be a part of and they have a hard time leaving because it's such an amazing place to work, I think you're protected from both of those issues. Now you need a strong leader. in place to build, develop, and cultivate that culture. And Aaron shares a bunch of great advice in this book for how to become the leader that you're meant to be. If you're worried about attracting new talent to your company, or if you're worried about how do you keep them there, culture's the answer. This book will give you the prescription to make it happen. I hope you enjoy reading it. Cheers.
