Description

Jason pushes back hard against the idea that listening alone can fix construction. He argues that real change requires structure, training, and motivation together, not just soft skills, and lays out a long list of hard implementable changes owners and companies need to make. He walks through why CPM negates worker improvements, why continuous improvement always comes last in a system, and why Toyota's own workers only originate a fraction of the ideas that drive change.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• Why listening alone will never fix the construction industry
•  The three things Switch says every change needs to succeed
•  Why CPM negates the improvements workers come up with
•  Why continuous improvement always comes last, not first
•  A concrete list of hard changes owners and companies must make

If you have been told that real change just takes listening and openness, the honest question is whether that answer would survive being handed to a real project team tomorrow with a real deadline.
