The Toolbox of a Leader

Contractors know how important it is for their crafts people to have a toolbox (and bags) full of well maintained tools.

These tools allow the experienced crafts person to effectively deal with any situation they come across on the jobsite.  

Building Your Leadership "Toolbox"

As a leader in a construction business you must build your own toolbox.  Just like the craft tools; many of the leadership tools require training, coaching and constant practice to be truly effective.  

And just like a journey level craftsperson a leader is constantly training others on how to use the tools while always continuing their road towards mastery.

Balancing Modes of Prioritization and Career Progression
If your workload prioritization seems impossible, try looking at it from a higher-level of prioritization. We all must prioritize in life and at work. Our outcomes are heavily impacted by how effective we are at prioritization.
Mental Models and Building Strong Businesses
The best builders develop a complex 5D mental model of the project, keeping it constantly updated. Through thousands of interactions with hundreds of people over years they “nudge” the project from concept through construction completion.
Competency and Compensation
A large part of sustainable growth for contractors is being able to effectively leverage people with a narrower set of skills to still deliver the same level of value-add to the customer.
