Jason also shares a practical four-step training process salon owners can use to teach almost anything: • I do, you watch • I do, you help • You do, I help • You do, I watch  This approach gives team members room to observe, explain, practice, receive support, and finally demonstrate the skill independently. It takes more time than a one-and-done training, but it creates stronger confidence, better follow-through, and results that can actually be repeated.  In this episode: • The difference between awareness, application, and results • Why “I know” can shut down learning • How to assess what a team member can actually do • A simple training exercise that exposes unclear instructions • Why owners need to verify skills instead of assuming understanding • How better training reduces frustration for both the owner and the team  Text “ACADEMY” to (916) 258-0720 to connect with the HPSA team and talk through the next right step for your salon.
