We'll break down how these same probabilistic thinking skills can transform how you lead construction projects, forecast challenges, and guide your team to consistently win.
By listening, you'll discover:
- The 4 components of a great prediction and why they matter more than gut instinct.
- How to measure and improve your decision-making accuracy over time.
