The Key to Finding and Retaining Great Employees (hint: Be a Better Employer) with Mick Mulhall: Episode 37 of Growing in the Green Industry Podcast

In the 37th episode of the Growing in the Green Industry Podcast, hosts Neal Glatt, managing partner of GrowTheBench, Brett Lemcke, VP of R.M. and Luke Melograno, production coordinator at Mariani Landscape talk with Mick Mulhall, president of Mulhall’s, an Omaha, Nebraska-based family of green industry businesses.

Mulhall’s grandfather immigrated from Ireland in 1953 to landscape, and now, three generations later, the team at Mulhall’s is as committed as they’ve ever been to making Omaha a more beautiful place to live. Today they’re a few hundred people, but the focus remains the same: working together to engage their community and share their passion for the beauty and importance of the natural world.

In this podcast, Mulhall shares a brief history of the business and thoughts around finding his place and passion, as well as the organization’s continued focus on plentiful and meaningful community engagement. The group also discusses the importance of focusing on the whole employee, not just the parts you need or encounter in the workplace, and how being a better employer leads to finding and retaining better employees.
