From boot camps to field training, Jason shows why our schools and even many corporate programs are broken, and how the construction industry can step up with meaningful education that sticks.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• Why grading and homework are damaging and outdated.

• How schools condition kids to stay quiet instead of staying curious.

• Why colleges and traditional training leave people siloed and scared to speak up.

• Examples of companies (Hensel Phelps, Petticoat-Schmidt, O'Shea Builders) doing training the right way.

• Why ignorance benefits the ruling class and why we must fight it with education.

• The dangerous excuses we keep repeating in construction ("workers are the problem," "we can't do that here," "retention is fine") and why they're all wrong.

• The books, tools, and lean practices that every builder should be learning and applying today.

Jason's challenge is simple: training, training, and more training. Not once a year, not when it's convenient, every day, until learning becomes the heartbeat of your company. Because we don't rise to the level of our ambitions, we fall to the level of our training.

If you're ready to swap ignorance for growth and excuses for real learning, this episode will light a fire.
