Ep.37 - Afternoon Foreman Huddles

This episode digs into one of the most powerful levers a superintendent has: the daily and weekly huddle system that aligns foremen, workers, and the project. Jason breaks down how afternoon foreman huddles, worker huddles, and a weekly planning rhythm transform chaos into clarity on any job site. Through real project examples and hard-earned lessons, he shows why scaling communication from the master schedule to the worker is the foundation of flow, stability, and predictable production. If you've ever struggled with firefighting, misalignment, or wasted mornings, this episode will reset how you plan and lead.
