Keeping Your Coaches - Business of Fitness #69

He's back everybody! M.D.V (Matt DellaValle) is a seasoned guest and co-host of the Business of Fitness Podcast. MDV is the Chief Fitness Officer at NCFIT, managing all fitness, coaching, and programming operations worldwide for the company. Over the past decade, MDV's journey has taken him a few different directions—coaching at some of the best gyms in the biz (CFNE, Reebok CrossFit ONE, CrossFit ONE Nation & NCFIT), leading seminars as part of CrossFit HQ Staff, and managing fitness partnerships for Reebok INTL. Before all this fitness stuff, MDV earned his law degree from William & Mary Law. He is passionate about coaching, fitness, and American traditional tattoos.

Today is all about coach retention and best practices for staff satisfaction. From paygrade and bonuses/incentives to creating culture and building rapport, today's episode shares what we've learned about employee gratification over the last 11 years at NCFIT. Fitness aside, anyone in the service industry has a takeaway or two from today's show. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!
