Jason continues Elevating Construction Foreman with three principles: crew leaders as roadblock removers, put down your tools, and don't escape to Home Depot. He argues that a crew leader clears the path ahead of the work and should be present on site, not working beside the crew or running errands.
What you'll learn in this episode:
- Why a crew leader's top priority is removing roadblocks ahead of the work
- Why the crew leader who always raises problems may be the project's best asset
- Why a crew leader should put down the tools to prepare and plan
- What Major Dick Winters' command style teaches about stepping back from the fight
- Why errands belong before or after the day and not during it
Are you leading from the front of the crew or working beside it?
