Most construction leaders have an engineering background.

They are comfortable with tools, detailed plans, black and white specifications, and hard work. But when they step up to senior leadership roles, and shift to overseeing people instead of projects, they struggle, and fail to reach the profit goals they are responsible for.

They know how to build projects, but they struggle to lead people.

They get stuck in the weeds solving specific project problems that their Project Engineers or Project Managers should handle, instead of playing at a higher level, accomplishing more through others, cultivating relationships with clients, and participating in the senior leadership team.

Developing the Project Executives who report to you is time consuming and tricky.

You can be saying and doing the right things, but your direct reports hear your voice every day, and they can begin to tune you out, and your message loses its power. That’s why it can be helpful to get an outside voice. Coaching and training that provides real-world insights into how to be a better leader. An objective perspective from a construction industry expert who helps emerging leaders, established executives, and the C-Suite excel.
