Elevate Construction Ep.323 - Being Curious, Feat Joe Donarumo
Jason sits down with Joe Donnarummo to talk about generating curiosity in lean construction instead of intimidation and overwhelm. The skeptical superintendent who has been successful for 30 years will tell you there is nothing wrong with the way he runs work. But the industry is not the same as it was 30 years ago. The tools that made superintendents successful back then do not work today. Are you tired of working 80 hour weeks and dragging projects across the finish line at the expense of your family, health, and quality of life? Finishing a project well is not just about being on time and making money. It is about taking care of careers, preserving families, delivering quality and safety, and creating raving fans.
What you'll learn in this episode:
- How to generate curiosity in skeptical superintendents by tying lean to current state pain points
- Why the construction industry today requires different tools than 30 years ago
- The new definition of finishing well: on time, profitable, owner happy, AND careers protected, families preserved, quality delivered
- Jason's challenge: consider master scheduling systems that create workflow, trade flow, and logistical flow
- Joe's challenge: let the job speak to you and fix something small that bugs you
Are you tired of working 80 hours a week and dragging projects barely across the finish line to the expense of your family and health? There is a better way.
