It's crazy to think that the amount of materials have gone up in the last 10 years, to think that greenkeepers are out there now with budgets lower than years ago and increased or ever-increasing expectations for members.
Ever wondered what life is like for those who keep our greens pristine? Stuart Butler is joined by Richard Johnstone and Peter Weatherson to dive into the nitty-gritty of the greenkeeping industry. They tackle the hot topic of wages, with some eye-opening insights into whether greenkeepers are truly compensated fairly. The trio also digs into the financial side of things, exploring how to stretch shrinking budgets without compromising quality.
But it's not all about numbers; they also discuss how to lure the younger generation into this rewarding yet demanding field. With an aging workforce and dwindling educational opportunities, attracting fresh talent is more critical than ever. And let's not forget the personal side of the job. Greenkeeping isn't just physically taxing; it takes a mental toll too. Our guests share their thoughts on how employers can better support their staff's well-being.
Whether you're in the industry or just curious about what goes on behind the scenes, this episode offers a comprehensive look at the challenges and opportunities in greenkeeping.
