On-Demand Webinar: Shop Talk: (Part 2) Schmidt Auto Care’s 4-day workweek — What works, what doesn’t, and what they’ve learned
In our last Shop Talk webinar, we touched on how Schmidt Auto Care’s streamlined operations helped make a 4-day workweek possible — but we barely scratched the surface. Now, we’re diving in. Join us for part two as Erich Schmidt returns to share the full story of how his shop made the transition to a 4-day workweek. From the benefits and unexpected wins to the challenges and lessons learned, this candid conversation will give you a real-world look at what it takes to make this schedule work in this industry.
