Welcome back to LLC, with your host, David Wintzer. Today’s conversation is a deep dive into one of the most vital principles of success across every field - being pleasantly persistent. Whether it’s in business, sports, or personal endeavors, our mistakes are crucial learning opportunities, but only if we actually learn from them and share those lessons. In this episode, David reflects on his days as a project engineer, where the term "professional emailer" became synonymous with relentless follow-up and the importance of clear communication. We'll hear stories from the trenches of commercial construction, specifically the impact of a teammate named Clara, whose pleasantly persistent nature exemplified the art of following up without being pushy or rude. Persistence isn't just a tactic; it's a winning strategy. David will share his insights on why those willing to make those extra calls and stay kindly persistent will come out on top. Plus, he'll speak to his journey through the industry, the people who've had a profound influence on his career, and plant a seed for future episodes featuring remarkable guests from various walks of life. Lock in, and prepare to learn why 'pleasantly persistent' is more than a mantra - it's a cornerstone for triumph in the complex game of construction and beyond.
