In-Dealership Training Builds a Stronger Dealership Culture

SCOTTSDALE, AZ, UNITED STATES, July 23, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- While most dealership training programs focus solely on boosting performance metrics, Mark Gilbert, CEO of Automotive Training Network (ATN), is drawing attention to a deeper outcome of in-dealership training: culture transformation.

"When training happens inside the store, alongside the people doing the work, it becomes part of the culture, not just a task on the calendar," says Gilbert. "That consistency and visibility from leadership changes the way a team thinks, performs, and collaborates."

ATN’s in-dealership programs go beyond skills instruction by immersing staff in daily, guided routines that reinforce shared standards, communication, and accountability. Gilbert believes that culture isn't built in a classroom or a Zoom call. It's built in the moments where people are coached, supported, and challenged in real time.

By conducting training directly in the dealership environment, ATN helps managers model expectations more effectively, break down silos between departments, and integrate leadership behaviors into the daily operations. From the showroom to the service drive, everyone is aligned around a common set of values and goals.

"You can tell when a dealership has a strong culture," Gilbert explains. "People communicate clearly, problems get solved faster, and there’s a sense of ownership that trickles into the customer experience."

Dealers who adopt in-dealership training often report improvements in staff morale, retention, and internal trust. Because training becomes part of the dealership's rhythm—not a separate event—it drives behavioral change that lasts.

Gilbert also points out that culture-focused training is critical for preparing the next generation of dealership leaders. “When employees see their managers learning and participating alongside them, it creates buy-in. That’s how you develop future managers who don’t just know the numbers, but know how to lead.”

As the automotive retail environment becomes increasingly competitive and customer expectations rise, Gilbert believes that a strong internal culture will be the key to differentiating between survival and thriving.

"Skills win deals. Culture wins careers," he says. "And in-dealership training is how you build both."

Material Capital Partners Closes on Land for Mill Landing Residential Community in Greer, South Carolina

Mill LandingRepresenting the first investment from MCP’s BTR Development Fund II, the firm expands its Southeast footprint in one of SC’s fastest-growing marketsWe’re committed to bringing thoughtfully planned communities to high-opportunity regions like this one, where we can add long-term value for both residents and our investors.”— Alex Chalmers, Founder and Managing Partner of Material Capital PartnersGREER, SC, UNITED STATES, July 23, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Material Capital Partners (“MCP”), a vertically integrated real estate development and investment firm specializing in build-to-rent communities, today announced the closing of its latest land acquisition for the development of Mill Landing, a new build-to-rent residential community in Greer, South Carolina, just northeast of Greenville. Located at 788 Brockman McClimon Road, the land closing marks the inaugural investment from MCP’s BTR Development Fund II and represents a strategic expansion into one of the Southeast’s fastest-growing markets. It also aligns with MCP’s mission to develop thoughtfully designed, amenity-rich rental communities in areas experiencing strong migration trends. According to the U.S. News & World Report 2024–2025 rankings, the Greenville metro area is recognized as the top place to live in South Carolina and ranks fourth nationally — further underscoring the region’s appeal. “This land closing marks a meaningful step in our continued expansion across the Southeast,” said Alex Chalmers, Founder and Managing Partner of Material Capital Partners. “Greer offers everything we look for in a market — strong population growth, economic momentum, access to major employers, and a high quality of life. We’re committed to bringing thoughtfully planned communities to high-opportunity regions like this one, where we can add long-term value for both residents and our investors.” Mill Landing will mark the firm’s 10th asset in the Southeast and adds to a growing pipeline of build-to-rent communities currently under development. These include an 82-unit upscale townhome community in Bluffton, South Carolina; a 170-unit cottage-style community in Brunswick, Georgia; and a 131-unit community in Augusta, Georgia. Mill Landing will deliver 163 single-family detached homes and townhomes on approximately 25 acres, with a mix of three- and four-bedroom floor plans. Each home will feature an attached private garage, private patio, and premium interior finishes, including granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances. The community will be designed in a new urbanist style, integrating a network of parks and green spaces with a full suite of upscale amenities. Planned features include a clubhouse with coworking and lounge spaces, a resort-style swimming pool, fitness center, large dog park, and walking trails. Greystar, the global leader in residential property management, will serve as property manager for Mill Landing. The firm currently oversees several other premium build-to-rent communities across the Greenville MSA, bringing deep regional expertise to the project. Strategically located in Greer — one of South Carolina’s fastest-growing cities — Mill Landing benefits from direct access to I-85, placing it within minutes of both downtown Greenville and Spartanburg. The site is just 4.5 miles from BMW’s U.S. manufacturing plant, which employs over 11,000 people, and 5.2 miles from Michelin’s North American headquarters, two of the state’s largest employers. Fueled by population growth of more than 69% over the past two decades, a growing base of over 40 international firms, and a location that combines scenic mountain views with seamless connectivity to major economic centers, Greer is rapidly establishing itself as a premier destination for both businesses and residents within the Greenville-Spartanburg metro area. The project is expected to break ground in the third quarter of 2025, with completion slated for the second quarter of 2027. For more information on Mill Landing, visit www.livemilllanding.com.

Branża pomp ciepła w Polsce odczuwa konsekwencje dezinformacji. Krążące mity zniechęcają do tej technologii

Przedstawiciele branży pomp ciepła biją na alarm: mity i dezinformacja krążące w przestrzeni publicznej, brak wystarczającego wsparcia informacyjnego rządu i nieprawidłowości w działalności nieuczciwych firm w poprzedniej edycji programu Czyste Powietrze – to główne przyczyny pogorszenia wizerunku tej technologii. Branża walczy z dezinformacją i stara się wzmacniać świadomość społeczną w zakresie ekologicznych i ekonomicznych korzyści z instalacji pomp ciepła. Jednocześnie podkreśla potrzebę kompleksowych działań ze wsparciem rządu.

W UE trwa dyskusja o większej kontroli przesyłek e-commerce o wartości poniżej 150 euro. Zwolnienie z cła jest nadużywane

Do Europy w ubiegłym roku trafiło ok. 4,5 mld przesyłek e-commerce o niskiej wartości, czyli poniżej progu 150 euro, który zwalnia z cła. To dwa razy więcej niż w 2023 roku. W 65 proc. przypadków wartość przesyłki jest zaniżana właśnie z uwagi na politykę celną, co zdaniem instytucji unijnych jest naruszeniem uczciwej konkurencji. W dodatku wiele z tych produktów nie spełnia norm bezpieczeństwa czy norm środowiskowych wymaganych w Europie. Dlatego trwa dyskusja nad tym, jak zwiększyć kontrolę nad wpływającymi z zagranicy paczkami.
