    Bring the Classroom to the Shop: Raising the Bar For On-Site Training [RR 1105]

    Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode What if the best place to train your technicians isn't a classroom, but your own shop? In this episode of Remarkable Results Radio, Carm Capriotto sits down with Brandon Steckler, former Motor Age editor and industry educator, to discuss S.W.A.T. (Steckler Worldwide Automotive Technical Training and Diagnostics) and his mission to elevate automotive repair through hands-on education, diagnostic support, and a culture of continuous learning. Brandon explains why effective training should close knowledge gaps rather than simply provide quick answers, and why shop owners should view education as an investment in their people, their business, and the entire local repair community. What You'll Learn How S.W.A.T. combines just-in-time diagnostic support with technician training.Why on-site training can create stronger technical foundations and better diagnostic habits.Why shop owners shouldn't fear inviting neighboring businesses to participate in training.How collaboration between local shops can strengthen the entire automotive repair community.Why technicians need to become "perpetual students" as vehicle technology continues to evolve.How investing in training can improve technician confidence, productivity, and profitability.Why bringing education directly into the shop can shorten the distance between learning and earning. Great technical training doesn't simply help a technician fix today's vehicle. It builds the knowledge, habits, confidence, and diagnostic thinking needed for tomorrow's challenges. Brandon's message is clear: shops that consistently invest in education create stronger professionals, stronger teams, and a stronger industry. Brandon Steckler, S.W.A.T Training and Diagnostics.

    Why Employees Disengage and How Leaders Reconnect Them [RR 1103]

    Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode Why are so many employees disengaged at work, and what can leaders do about it? Dr. JJ Peterson explores how business leaders can cure employee disengagement by applying the StoryBrand framework to their management style. The episode addresses a massive workplace crisis: roughly 80% to 90% of the American workforce identifies as disengaged, meaning they are stressed, disconnected, and not giving their best. Because a boss can impact an employee's mental health even more than a therapist, Dr. Peterson argues that leaders have a profound responsibility to show up in a way that positively impacts their team. What You'll Learn Why most employees disengage and what leaders can do to change it.The four workplace character roles: Victim, Villain, Hero, and Guide.Why great leaders stop trying to be the hero and instead help their employees succeed.How empathy and authority work together to build trust and accountability.Why people want to feel they matter more than they want to feel motivated.How defining purpose and creating a shared story strengthens company culture.Why repairing relationships after mistakes builds lasting trust and psychological safety. Dr. Peterson notes that people don't wake up wanting to be motivated; they wake up wanting to matter. Leaders must clearly communicate two things to make employees feel they matter: why the company's work is important (e.g., alleviating severe stress for customers with broken down cars) and why the individual's specific role in that mission is valuable. Similarly, true company culture is not about having snacks in a breakroom; it is about intentionally building a shared story where everyone knows their roles, values, and what success looks like.

    The AI-Informed Customer Has Arrived: What It Means For Auto Repair [THA 496]

    Thanks to our Partners, NAPA TRACS, Today's Class, KUKUI, and Pit Crew Loyalty Watch Full Video Episode Are your customers rolling up to the counter with their vehicles already "diagnosed" by ChatGPT or Gemini? More customers are turning to AI before they ever call your shop, using tools like ChatGPT and Gemini as the "WebMD" for their vehicles. They often arrive convinced they've identified the problem, making today's service advisor responsible for validating the customer's concerns while guiding the conversation back to proper testing and professional diagnostics. Brian Weeks, Jon Kloosterman, and Alex Littlewood join Carm Capriotto to explore how AI is reshaping customer expectations and why the shops that thrive will be the ones that combine technology with authentic human connection. What You'll Learn Why the "human premium" is becoming more valuable as AI-generated content grows.How to respond when customers arrive with AI-generated vehicle diagnoses.Why AI should automate administrative tasks, not customer relationships.How AI helps service advisors and technicians become more efficient.Strategies for adopting AI without overwhelming your team.Why AI can reinforce the value of professional diagnostics and repair expertise. As AI-generated content floods the internet, customers are finding it harder to separate facts from fiction. That uncertainty creates an opportunity for repair shops. AI can improve efficiency, but trust is still earned through knowledgeable people, thoughtful communication, and genuine relationships. The future belongs to shops that use AI to support the customer experience, not replace the human connection that builds lasting confidence.
