In this episode, Jason dives into a critical concept in Lean construction: the difference between improving a system and tearing it down.

How tearing down systems undermines continuous improvement. Examples of non-negotiables in a Lean construction environment. How to distinguish between real improvement and destructive changes. Why consistency enables your team to operate at peak performance. Are your ideas building the system, or are they tearing it down?
