🎙️Mentoring the Boss: How to Coach Construction Executives
We talk a lot about mentoring field teams but what about mentoring up?
In this insightful (and hilarious) episode, Jason Schroeder teams up with two of his favorite humans, Mark Story and Jake Smaellie to flip the script on coaching in construction. Instead of just mentoring superintendents and project engineers, the trio dives into what it really takes to coach executives and why it matters more than you think.
🔥 Tune in for:
How to coach the people at the top without losing your head.
Why some of the best leaders are also the best students.
The power of approachability (and how it builds trust on jobsites).
Real talk on "sidecars," compliment sandwiches, and leadership brands.
And yes… a few legendary stories about yelling on staircases, emotional feedback, and bear encounters.
Whether you're in the trailer, the boardroom, or somewhere in between, this episode will leave you with practical takeaways on humility, mentoring, and leading by example.
👷♂️ If you want better leaders, be one and press play.
