Window Nation had 80% employee turnover. Within 6 months, Mike Matalone brought it
down to 23% — without changing their sales process, marketing, or compensation.

The only thing he changed was how they hired, onboarded, and developed their people.

Mike is the founder of XP3 Talent Systems and the bestselling author of Hire, Train,
Retain. He spent 5 years coaching 45 CEOs through Vistage, where he discovered that
80-90% of all business problems trace back to one thing: people.

In this episode, Tommy and Mike break down the exact people operating system that
transforms average hires into A players in 30 days — and why the owners who think
they can hire their way to a great team are already losing.
