In this podcast we cover:
In this episode, I open up about a recent post on flow in construction that really struck a nerve with me. Too often, definitions of flow focus on zones or processes and completely ignore the human side of building. From my experience as a superintendent, I explain why putting a GoPro on a work zone misses the bigger picture and can actually harm the people doing the work. I share why the train of trades is the real flow unit, how overburdening leads to safety risks and productivity spirals, and why respecting people is the foundation of lean. This is not just theory. It is about protecting our workers, challenging lazy thinking, and calling for lean influencers to take their responsibility seriously. If you care about the future of construction, this conversation is for you.
