What if the biggest thing holding your team back.. is you?
In this raw, powerful episode, Jason Schroeder tackles one of the most controversial topics in construction leadership: "Dragon Sickness." Inspired by The Hobbit, Jason draws a striking parallel between Thorin hoarding gold in the mountain and superintendents hoarding control on their jobsites.
Do you avoid sharing schedules? Get defensive when others give feedback? Resist transparency and try to solve everything alone?
If so, you may be suffering from dragon sickness and it's killing your project culture.
🎯 In this episode:
Why radical transparency is the key to trust, safety, and high performance.
Real stories from Jason's journey learning to let go of fear and control.
Practical strategies to open up, share problems, and lead like a pack not a lone wolf.
Whether you're a superintendent, PM, field engineer, or foreman, this is a wake-up call you can't afford to miss.
🔥 Listen now. Shed the dragon skin. Lead with trust.
