Ep.137 – Calumet "K" – Chapter 2 - BONUS

In this episode, Jason continues the Calumet K series with Chapter 2, where Charlie Peterson's inexperience becomes painfully clear against Bannon's problem-solving drive. Through the story of Murphy's rope drive job and Peterson's cribbing crisis, Jason unpacks what separates proficient superintendents from inexperienced ones and why comfort zone work is just running away from real leadership.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• Why doing laborer's work means you're running away from your real job as a superintendent
• How productively paranoid leaders attack supply chain issues instead of hoping they resolve themselves
• Why great superintendents get out of their comfort zone to solve hard problems nobody else wants to tackle
• The difference between victim mentality and ownership mentality when deadlines and penalties are on the line
• How urgency and aggressive problem-solving separate proficient project teams from inexperienced ones

Are you leading or just staying busy in your comfort zone?
