Finding Your Tribe in Construction with Kate and Millicent

How do you find people in design and construction working to make our industry better than they found it? Often you find them in genuine conversations sharing honestly about how things are and what we are working on today. Kate Simons and Millicent Drabble are two such individuals that are transforming the industry from within. Incremental steps taken regularly with the right people make a community, a tribe, that work together on meaningful changes.    Kate’s passion is learning, coaching, and continuous improvement.  Through her role as Director of Scheduling and Controls at Shawmut Design and Construction, you can find her talking about flow, predictability, human connection, quality, creating value, and helping people translate plans and ideas into action.  She is incredibly lucky in that she gets an almost daily opportunity to help jobsite teams better leverage their individual strengths, solve problems and communicate more effectively.    Kate specializes in Collaborative Planning, Scheduling, and Team Alignment/Communication.  She recently volunteered to re-kickstart the New England Lean COP and has spent the last year trying new and scary experiences [like being on a podcast]. Connect with Kate Simons via LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/katherine-simons-psp-cm-lean-25872b14/  Learn more about Liberating Structures via  Website https://www.liberatingstructures.com/    A proud poetic pragmatist, Millicent Drabble firmly believes in the power combination of being technically skilled, people savvy, and curious. With a career in the built environment that encompasses design, construction, operations, and maintenance across five countries, she knows that project management and risk management are unifying dialects across stakeholders, cultures, currency, and expectations. It’s collaborating with and learning from a diverse array of people that really gets Millicent excited, and in her role as Manager of Construction Operations for Shawmut Design and Construction’s West Region, she relishes the ability to do this, not only within the organization but with peers in the industry through the Urban Land Institute. Having (almost) mastered the art of embracing uncertainty as a global nomad, Millicent leverages her leadership identity to inspire people and teams, by nurturing the confidence required to fail and evolve – we are in the business of problem-solving after all!

Superintendent Leadership - Frank Coln

Frank Coln strives to create an environment of constant learning on his projects.  His experiences with pull planning and the Last Planner System go beyond one size fits all approaches that often fail.  He represents a growing number of construction superintendents that openly embrace Lean and actively work towards greater collaboration, patience, respect, flexibility, accountability, and use of technology.  He is reflective and intentional about how processes are and are not working.     Frank says, “Listen to those PMs if you’re a superintendent, they’ll have a different perspective than what you have.” He was among the early integrated project delivery projects in Texas with an integrated form of agreement in the late 2000s as a Superintendent.  The Easier, Better, for Construction Show is where people working to make building easier and better share how.  Frank is committed to making construction easier and better and made numerous contributions to The Lean Builder Blog and The Lean Construction Blog.     Connect with Frank via LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/frank-coln-leed-a-p-724200101/ The Lean Builder Blog Posts:  https://theleanbuilder.com/construction-superintendent-2-0-update-and-reboot/ https://theleanbuilder.com/boost-your-constraint-management-skills/   The Lean Construction Blog Posts:  https://leanconstructionblog.com/Enhancing-A3-Problem-Solving-with-Technology.html https://leanconstructionblog.com/The-step-we-often-overlook-when-implementing-the-Last-Planner-System.html   Connect with Felipe via LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/engineerfelipe  Twitter at https://twitter.com/felipe_engineer   Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/thefelipeengineer     Today’s episode is sponsored by Construction Accelerator.
