WHAT YOUR EMPLOYEES AREN’T SAYING (AND WHY YOU NEED TO ASK)
This episode of Talk Fiber to Me, Baby is a wake-up call for every leader who’s ever said “we’ve got a communication issue.”Caleb and Josh Etheridge dive deep into one of the most critical, and most misunderstood, tools in any organization’s toolbox: communication. Whether you’re leading crews in the field or managing growth from the top, your ability to communicate clearly can either fuel your momentum or quietly fracture everything you’ve built.Inside the episode:● Why “unmet expectations” usually come from unspoken expectations● How to tailor your message to your team’s DISC profiles, not just your personal style● 67% of employees say they’d go above and beyond if they just felt heard● Strategy on a Page (SOAP): The simple framework EPC uses to keep communication on track as they scale● What bad communication really costs your organization and how to fix it before it kills culture and growthYou’ll hear hard-earned lessons, humorous confessions, and a few gut-check stats that will change the way you lead. This one’s about being the kind of leader people want to follow.Because if you’re not saying it clearly, they’re not hearing it. And that’s on you.#TalkFiberToMeBaby #EPC #Leadership #WorkforceDevelopment #BroadbandBusiness#CommunicationMatters #OrganizationalGrowth #DISC #SOAP #WeAreEPC

THE CITY EVERYONE WILL BE TALKING ABOUT
This episode of Talk Fiber to Me, Baby is a rally cry for rural revival. Caleb and Josh Etheridge are joined by Mayor Friday Ellis and Monroe Chamber President Roy Heatherly to unpack what it really takes to transform a city—not just with fiber and funding, but with vision, collaboration, and a whole lot of conviction.- How Monroe went from overlooked to unstoppable—with 28 new economic development leads in just two months.- The power of community buy-in: Why vision-setting works better when your residents help write the plan.- Broadband as a utility (not a luxury): Why connectivity is now as critical as water and sewer in Monroe’s growth strategy.- From drainage ditches to data centers—how infrastructure laid the foundation for $120M+ in federal investment.- Discussing the “Why not Monroe?” mindset shift that’s contagious across the I-20 corridor.This is practical, hands-on leadership focused on infrastructure, connectivity, and proving that rural communities can compete at the highest level. You’ll hear about lawnmower telehealth, pie-in-the-sky dreams that are now policy, and the very real economic firepower brewing in northeast Louisiana.Whether you’re a city official, a contractor, or an entrepreneur with big ideas in a small town, this episode is proof that the future belongs to the bold.#WeAreEPC #LouisianaJobs #TalkFiberToMe #EconomicGrowth
