Ep.922 - Experience - How Big Things Get Done Series

from Elevate Construction Hosted by Jason Schroeder

Jason continues the series with experience, using the Montreal Stadium and the Muskrat Falls dam compared with the Hoover Dam to show what lack of experience costs. He argues that companies shouldn't neutralize their master builders by promoting them into corporate roles where they stop building. He wants those builders respected, paid well, and kept on projects. What you'll learn in this episode: Why the Montreal Stadium and the Muskrat Falls dam went so far over budget How the Hoover Dam shows what an experienced general superintendent and loyal team can do Why promoting master builders into corporate roles neutralizes them What a master builder superintendent and PM bring to pre-construction How taking care of people, like at Terminal 5, supports a loyal team Are you keeping your best builders building, or promoting them away from the work?
