Ep.1473 - Failing To Plan, Feat. Adam (Beanie) Bean

from Elevate Construction · host Jason Schroeder

What if your project was doomed before the first shovel hit the ground? In this hard-hitting episode, Jason and Adam "Beanie" Bean team up across continents - Arizona to Australia - to expose one of construction's most dangerous habits: starting before we're ready.  You'll learn: The shocking stats behind global project failure (hint: only 0.5% finish on time and on budget). Why trades "fail despite their best efforts" - and how leaders set them up for it. The myth of "we can't plan without design," and what elite builders do instead. How to spot a project that's not ready to start - and the courage to stop it. The Japan-inspired principle that fixes everything: be hard on the process, easy on the people. If you've ever watched a project unravel and thought, "We could have seen this coming," this episode will show you exactly how to stop it from happening again. Listen now and learn how world-class builders plan, flow, and win - before they ever break ground.   If you like the Elevate Construction podcast, please subscribe for free and you'll never miss an episode.  And if you really like the Elevate Construction podcast, I'd appreciate you telling a friend (Maybe even two 😊).   Also, here are links to our YouTube Channels: · Jason Schroeder YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4xpRYvrW5Op5Ckxs4vDGDg · LeanTakt YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/leanTakt · LeanSuper YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzQDevqQP19L4LePuqma3Fg/featured · LeanSurvey YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-Ztn3okFhyB_3p5nmMKnsw
