Ep.61 - Lead Like General Patton Part 2 - War Series #1


Listen Later

If you want to lead your project like a field commander instead of reacting like a firefighter, this episode will light a fire in you. Jason continues the War Series with "How to Lead Like General Patton Part 2," using Patton's letter from D-Day and his standing field orders to teach practical jobsite leadership. You'll learn why leaders must lead in person, visit the "front" daily, run short daily conferences, keep teams informed, and enforce discipline with respect for people. This is about building self-confidence, scaling communication to the worker level, removing roadblocks aggressively, and protecting your people and their families through better systems.

What you'll learn in this episode:

  • Why leaders must lead in person and get out to the field dailynot manage from the trailer
  • How to use daily huddles and conferences to scale communication and drive execution
  • Why "reports must be facts, not opinions" and how reconnaissance connects to road block removal
  • How discipline, cleanliness, and standards protect safety, quality, and respect for people
  • Why urgency must be paired with pre-planning so you can push in flow, not chaos

Are you modeling the standard you expect or asking your team to do what you won't do yourself?
