  <description>Want to GROW your newsletter? Join mine to learn how it’s done: https://better.biz/newsletter In this episode, I tackle a question I get all the time: 1099 vs W2 — which should you hire? I break down the real differences, share a story about two moving companies that taught me the lesson, and explain why the choice impacts your company culture more than your bank account. Then, for the first time, I share my own Better Humanness Reporting — what I’m reading, how I’m training, and my biggest wins personally and professionally this past week. This is a new style of episode, going a bit longer and behind the scenes. I’d love your feedback. 💡 Key Takeaways:  1099 contractors may save money in the short term, but they rarely build long-term culture. W2 employees allow you to invest in leadership, development, and a real “crew.” Culture is built by consistent teams, not random contractors pieced together. Leadership after the first million in business is about succeeding through people. Better Humanness Reporting: training, reading, and wins help leaders connect at a deeper level.  ⏱️ Chapters:  00:00 Intro &amp;amp;amp; New Style of Episode 01:10 1099 vs W2 — The Real Question 03:00 The Moving Company Story (Contractors vs Crews) 06:20 Why W2 Employees Build Better Culture 09:00 Leadership Beyond a Million — Succeeding Through People 11:30 Introducing Better Humanness Reporting 12:15 My Training This Week 13:50 What I’m Reading Right Now 15:10 Personal &amp;amp;amp; Professional Wins 16:30 Asking for Your Feedback  Connect with me: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jerred.moon/  My site: https://better.biz Get my book: https://bit.ly/killingcomfort #leadership #businessgrowth #companyculture #entrepreneurship #tryharder </description>
