Description

Dr. Steve Grennan challenged Jason with a simple question: "Show me that people are your most valuable asset." This off-script, under-five-minute message cuts straight to the heart of what we say versus what we do in construction. Jason confronts the lie that employees should be "loyal" to companies or do multi-billion-dollar corporations "favors" by ruining their families and health. We work to live, not live to work. Family is eternal. Buildings are temporary. If a company claims people are their biggest asset but doesn't prove it, they're lying.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• Dr. Grennan's challenge: Show me through actions, training, mentoring, leader standard work, knowing families, that people truly matter
• Why loyalty to a company is a lie: You're loyal to family, God, and health, not to corporations making billions while you get divorce and heart attacks
• The eternal vs. temporary question: When you're dying, will the building be there? No. Your family will be.
• When to fire your company: If they marginalize people or aren't safe, you 86 them, they're not good enough to employ you
• What "show me" looks like: Personal development, one-on-ones, protecting families over customer demands

There's no such thing as doing a multi-billion-dollar company a favor, if they say people are their asset, make them show you.
