Pie in the Face at Western Home

At Western Home Communities we were struggling at getting new employees hired fast enough as we tend to lose 20% due to student transitions every season.  In anticipation of filling 23 FTE's I made a deal with the HR department.  I let them throw cream pies in my face if they could do this in 5 weeks.  Not only did they accomplish this task but they have been able to keep up with our needs since then because we were able to raise the expectations.  The HR team enjoyed the pie face challenge and my team thoroughly enjoyed it as spectators.
