In this episode, Hoots introduces the Lean Builder nation to Brian Melcher with Field Verified. Brian gives us his story on how he went from becoming an accountant to chasing water for a living. Brian tells his story on weighing whether College was the only option! He opens with his story on how he got Field Verified started and where they’re headed. Tune in as he puts his perfect record fighting water intrusion on the line with a new stadium project!

Brian talks Hoots on The Ground into showing the Accountability matrix for people to better understand how lean builders hold people accountable. Quick tip, it’s start internal to make sure that what you are delivering is what is needed. The only way you can find that out is through questioning. The first ¾ of the RPM looking graphic is dedicated to challenging the process and the final ¼ is directed at the people. In order to hold folks accountable, this chart should always be used.

Hoots challenges Brian to get his podcast out and even puts down a wager to see if Brian will bite! With a couple of extra weeks for Brian and The Field Verified team, it appears that The Lean Builder will win! 50 subscribers and 10 videos Field Verified team – where are you at?

Field Verified also throws an invitation to The Lean Builder nation to submit your request for a free training to be the leader of leak detection at your company. This is a $3,000.00 offer being put out there. Hoots has been through 2 hours of this course and it is hands down packed with all kinds of learning!
