Epi 149: People Don't Leave Jobs, They Leave Bosses" (Part 4): The Same Page Plan That Retains Top Talent

People don't leave jobs - they leave bosses and opportunities. As your building company grows, your biggest challenge isn't finding good people, it's keeping them aligned and pulling in the same direction instead of operating like individual contractors under one roof. Join Owen Chambers for the final part of the Builder to Business Owner series as he reveals the Four Ds of CEO leadership: Dollars, Decibels, Discipline, and Direction. Discover how to create a Same Page Plan that gets your entire team rowing in the same direction, why PSR (Problem-Solution-Recommendation) should be a core company value, and how high standards naturally move poor performers out while attracting A-players who want to be part of something bigger. Learn why your vision must be large enough to fit everyone else's dreams inside it, and how successful builders transition from managing tasks to leading people toward a compelling future.
