In this episode, Michael is joined by Melissa Hanna, Vice President of Talent Management at United Rentals, to discuss how rental businesses can attract, develop and retain the workforce needed to support the industry’s continued growth.

Melissa reflects on her career across Hertz, Herc Rentals and United Rentals, sharing how mentors, advocates and hands-on experience shaped her approach to leadership and talent development. She explains why workforce development cannot be treated as a temporary challenge or simply an HR responsibility it must be embedded into the broader business strategy.
