Have you ever promoted someone because they were great at their job only to realize later that leadership requires a completely different skill set? It’s a common challenge in the construction industry, where technical excellence doesn’t always translate into effective leadership.

In this episode, Brad talks about:

• Importance of hiring and developing foremen in the construction industry.
• Promoting the best worker to foreman without considering leadership potential.
• Understanding the difference between task-oriented and time-oriented individuals.
• Exploring three types of leaders: Structured, Adaptive, and Craftsman.
• Introduction of a simplified Myers-Briggs-inspired test to identify leadership styles.
• Strategies for developing effective leadership skills in foremen.
