Sorry folks, Spotify doesn't like video. Check out this Youtube link:https://bit.ly/41J1pOe

Automotive Mechanics and Automotive Service Leaders; are you looking for ways to improve your daily production? Today I break down a hypothetical day to show you the advantage of journalling as a Technician. You are finding the steps between the steps that are preventing Technicians from hitting that next benchmark, leveling up, and providing more for themselves and their families. If this is your first time hearing a Coaches Corner, it would be better to go back to the first episode, so you understand the fundamentals.

The Wrench Turner's Podcast - Coaches Corner - Negative Pushes, Positive Pulls

Welcome to The Wrench Turner’s Podcast - Coaches Corner

These segments are a rough breakdown of coaching sessions I’ve had with mechanics, giving examples of difficulties, what's been advised, and the results that follow. In this episode we have a 9-year experienced, level 3 brand certified, flat-rate Dodge Technician, hereby nicknamed John. And, John, he wanted my help to find something else he could do, with the skills he had, not my coaching. Have a listen to this episode to see how he chose to handle the situation.

Welcome to The Wrench Turner’s Podcast - Coaches Corner

These segments are a rough breakdown of coaching sessions I’ve had with mechanics, giving examples of difficulties, what's been advised, and the results that follow.

In this episode we have an inexperienced, hourly, young mechanic, working at a franchised independent, here nicknamed Ross. Ross was feeling overwhelmed, by everything. Have a listen to this episode to see how he chose to handle the situation.
