🚨 New episode is LIVE!

Are your hiring gaps quietly hurting growth?

On Episode 143 of Talk To Th3 Doc, Steve “The Doctor” Meek sits down with Mark Mitford of HR Catalyst to talk about recruiting, onboarding, retention, leadership development, and why people problems are often growth problems in disguise.

We cover:
âś… Why leaders should always be recruiting
âś… Why a job posting is not the same as a job description
âś… How better onboarding improves retention
âś… Why managers need leadership tools, not just job titles
âś… How SMBs can build stronger systems around people and growth

At The Fulcrum Group, we see the same lesson in technology: clear systems, proactive planning, and good communication help people do better work.

Microsoft 365 is where most organizations run the business. That's exactly what makes it a blind spot.

Email, files, chat, scheduling, it all lives in one place now. The convenience is real. So is the risk hiding underneath it, and most leadership teams never see it until something goes wrong and the cleanup bill shows up.

On July 29 we're hosting an executive briefing on where real financial loss hides inside the Microsoft 365 environment you already trust, and the first practical steps to close those gaps. Plain English, built for leaders rather than IT.

Wednesday, June 17 — England vs Croatia (3:00 PM)
England and Croatia square off in Arlington on Wednesday, and it's the kind of match where the gameplan matters as much as the talent. Both sides have been here before. Both know the teams that plan ahead tend to be the ones still standing late in the tournament.

Funny how that holds up in business too. The organizations that think a few moves out usually aren't the ones scrambling when something breaks.

Enjoy the match, North Texas.

If your team has gotten used to:

• Restarting systems daily
• Waiting on programs to load
• Working around tech issues

You’re past the tipping point. At that stage, outdated technology isn’t neutral.

It’s actively costing you.

At Fulcrum, we help DFW businesses identify:
✔ What’s costing you money
âś” What actually needs to be replaced
âś” What can wait
âś” How to fix it without disruption

You don’t need to replace everything.

You just need to stop paying for the wrong things.

👉 Let’s take a look at what’s really going on in your environment. Read the blog.

Sunday, June 14 — Netherlands vs Japan (3:00 PM)
The world's biggest soccer tournament kicks off in our backyard this weekend, and the first match in Arlington puts the Netherlands against Japan. Pretty wild when you stop and think about it. Folks from all over the planet are flying into North Texas to watch soccer at AT&T Stadium.

We've always believed DFW punches above its weight. Now the rest of the world gets to see it too. Welcome to Texas, everybody. Bring sunscreen.

Who are you pulling for Sunday?

Most organizations around DFW don't lack technology.

They lack a plan behind it.

IT decisions happen reactively. Equipment gets replaced when it breaks. Cybersecurity gets addressed after a close call. Budgets get surprised every year. And leadership can't get a straight answer about what's actually working and what's quietly aging out.

That's the problem STARPower was built to solve.

STARPower is our strategic technology alignment process — a repeatable system that connects IT, cybersecurity, Microsoft 365, AI readiness, lifecycle planning, and budgeting to what your business is actually trying to accomplish. Not the other way around.

It's five steps: Illuminate. Align. Plan. Execute. Accelerate.

And the goal isn't to add complexity — it's to give leadership genuine visibility and a plan they can actually steer.

Technology shouldn't feel like a mystery your IT provider manages behind a curtain. It should feel like a managed, visible program that supports the business you're building.

If your current IT relationship is more reactive than strategic, we should probably talk.
What does your technology planning process actually look like today? Drop your answer below — curious what DFW business leaders are experiencing.
