EPISODE 418: Are you tired of chasing your team for every little thing?

Getting your team to take ownership is one of the most common frustrations I hear from construction business owners.

But here's the truth: your team isn't lazy, and it's not a people problem. It's a clarity problem.

In this episode of The Construction Leading Edge podcast, I'll explain why the real barrier to accountability is often a lack of clear expectations, processes, and vision.

Here's what we'll cover:

• Why capable people underperform when one key element is missing

• The three areas of clarity your business needs to unlock accountability

• What "winning" looks like for every role on your team

• The problem of having unclear systems and roles

• How to build a culture where ownership becomes the norm

…and more.

If you're overwhelmed, stretched too thin, and tired of doing everyone else's job, this episode is for you.
