Description

Most jobsite problems don't get solved because we're "too nice" to name what's actually hurting the team. In this episode, Jason explains what it really means to "demonize the enemy" in construction where the enemy isn't people, it's waste, variation, unsafe conditions, and cancerous behaviors that put workers and projects at risk. You'll learn how to draw clear lines, rally the team around standards, and deal with issues with urgency without losing respect for people. This is War Series #3, and it will help you stop being naive, stop tolerating the wrong things, and protect your people with better leadership.

What you'll learn in this episode:

•  Why the real enemy is waste, variation, and unsafe behavior not people
• How to galvanize a team by being crystal clear about expectations and non-negotiables
•  The "fight until negotiations are complete" mindset for change orders and jobsite pauses
• Where there is no compromise: safety, quality at the source, and protecting people
•  How to address cancerous behaviors and stop tolerating what's tearing down the culture

Where are you being too tolerant and what would change if you named the enemy and protected your team on purpose?
