Don’t know if you’ve noticed… but new employees often come with more skill gaps than advertised. 

How many times have you hired someone you thought had certain skills only to find out on-site that they, in fact, do not have said skills? The reality is when it comes to the talent pool, almost no one is truly “plug and play.” 

There are hundreds if not thousands of intricacies and nuances about how YOU do things, and that doesn’t always line up with how your new recruits have been trained via their previous employers, experience, or education. 

See… transferring skill is a SKILL in and of itself, and it’s one we see contractors struggle with. 

Today’s episode is about DORAGI, a framework for skill transfer that dramatically compresses learning curves. 

If you want better-equipped crews in less time, watch this episode.
