- Roles of Leadership Ft Ryan Groff Ep.158
Today I sit down with Ryan Groff, Chief Strategy Officer here at Blackline.Ryan has spent his career leading people—from managing teams on the job site to managing companies. In this conversation, we dig into the strategy behind building a culture where people understand what a career actually looks like.There are levels. There are roles. There are credentials. And then there is leadership.Those things are connected, but they aren’t the same.As leaders, part of our responsibility is helping our people understand the difference—and creating an environment where they can step into the roles they were built for, even when they may not see it in themselves yet.At Blackline, we don’t believe a career is a ladder.We believe it’s a field.Every position matters. From the front lines to the sidelines, the goal isn’t for everyone to climb to the same position. The goal is to win the game together—to get the right people in the right positions, help each person build a meaningful career, and create a team where people can succeed and be fulfilled in the work they do.Step up to The Line with us as we talk about levels, roles, leadership, and what it really means to build a career

1 hr 2 min - (The Personality Field Notes Issue 10) The Line Ep.157
FIELD NOTES 010: THE PERSONALITYSometimes the thing that destroys a project has nothing to do with the work. You can have the right people, the right equipment, and the right experience, but the wrong personalities can change everything. In this Field Note, we look at ego, blame, accountability, and the personality patterns that can quietly tear a team and a project apart.

15 min - (The Mirror Field Notes Issue 9) The Line Ep.156
FIELD NOTES 009: THE MIRROR
It’s easy to recognize arrogance, selfishness, and a lack of accountability in everyone else. It’s a lot harder to see it in ourselves. In this Field Note, we look at responsibility, ego, empathy, and the importance of regularly looking in the mirror to ask one difficult question: Who am I becoming?
21 min - Locked In Ft Josh Moser Ep.155
In this episode of The Line, Joshua Mellott of Blackline sits down with Josh Moser of Moser Roofing Solutions to talk about what it means to be LOCKED IN.
It’s a phrase Josh’s kids use, but it has become a powerful way to describe the focus, commitment, and intention it takes to build something that lasts.
They dig into the origins of Moser Roofing, where Josh came from, the lessons learned along the way, and what it takes to build a strong culture around people. The conversation also looks ahead at leadership, growth, and the responsibility of leading people into the future as an organization continues to evolve.
Where you come from matters. Where you’re going matters too. And getting there requires people who are willing to lock in and do the work.

1 hr 6 min - GROUND ZERO Ft Andrew brown Ep.154
THE LINE | GROUND ZEROThis is a first for us here at Blackline. Today, we’re re-sharing a previous episode of The Line because we believe this story and these words are worth hearing again.Twenty-five years ago today, on September 11, 2001, the United States of America was attacked.We should never be surprised that there are those who seek to attack liberty and freedom. Throughout our country’s history, both have had to be defended, protected, and fought for.And when our country has needed people to step up, the men and women of the skilled trades have answered the call.We saw it during COVID, when tradespeople were deemed essential and kept America moving. We saw it on 9/11, when first responders and tradespeople stepped into unimaginable circumstances to serve, rebuild, search, and help save lives.People like Andrew Brown.Andrew was at Ground Zero, working alongside first responders and fellow tradesmen, sifting through the rubble. What he experienced there changed his life and ultimately led him into the skilled trades.September 11 is a day to remember those we lost, those who served, and who we are as a country.Here at Blackline, we believe Andrew’s story is worth telling again.Step up to the line. Remember. Tell your story.Never Forget. 9.11.01.--------------------------WHERE TO WATCH:Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/07rT0hF...Apple https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...-------------------------FOLLOW JOSH:X: https://x.com/Joshuadmellott... / joshuadmellott LinkedIn: / TikTok: / ucc11qg6hxwp7tmvmr_sv7vg --------------------------FOLLOW BLACKLINE: @blacklineltdInstagram: / blacklinelt. .Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?...LinkedIn: / YouTube: / @blacklineltd Website: https://www.blacklineltd.com/--------------------------EXPLORE THE PODCASTSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/07rT0hF...Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...

14 min - The Call Field Notes Issue 7) The Line Ep.152
What is the purpose behind what you do?This week’s Field Notes, The Call, is about finding fulfillment in the work we do by understanding the purpose behind it. It’s about recognizing that our work is more than a job, a title, or a paycheck. There is a reason behind the work, the people we serve, and the way we lead.Sometimes fulfillment starts with understanding why we do what we do.Lessons Learned Through Experience. Shared From Those Who Are in the Field.

This week on The Line, I step up to the line with Dan Hammarberg of Westfield Egg Farm and the Westfield Group.Dan shares his perspective on culture, leadership, and what it really means to care for the people who do the work. We talk about knowing your team, understanding what they’re carrying, and creating opportunities for people to grow through intentional leadership development.We also get behind the scenes of an organization that has spent decades supporting small farms and helping bring their products to consumers in Manhattan, Chicago, and throughout the East Coast. It takes logistics, construction, facilities, operations, and a lot of people working together to make it happen.

44 min - (The Grind Field Notes Issue 6) The Line Ep.150
In this week’s Blackline Field Notes: The Grind, we talk about the reality of hard work, fatigue, and what happens when the grind goes on too long.
There are times when the work simply has to get done. But as leaders, we have a responsibility to understand what we’re asking our teams to carry. Leadership isn’t just about pushing people through the work. It’s about helping them carry what they need to carry—and making sure we’re not adding weight they were never meant to bear.
The Grind is a field note on hard work, fatigue, and leading your people well when the pressure is on.

28 min - Beyond Technology Ft KP Reddy Ep.149
What does the future look like when construction, technology, and the people who do the work come together?From the top of the NASDAQ Tower in Times Square, Joshua D. Mellott sits down with KP Reddy, Founder and CEO of Zero RFI, for a conversation that goes far beyond technology.They talk about AI and where technology is taking the construction industry, but the conversation quickly moves into something bigger: leadership, parenting, mentorship, hardship, and our responsibility to prepare the next generation.Technology will continue to change the way we work, but people still matter. Experience matters. And the knowledge we gain means very little if we aren’t willing to pass it on.Whether it’s our children, the people on our teams, or the person working beside us, we have a responsibility to teach, mentor, and share what we’ve learned so the next generation can take our industry, our culture, and our society further.KP understands construction. He understands technology. And he believes in finding better solutions while never losing sight of the people who actually do the work.Step Up to the Line and join the conversation.THE LINE Podcast x BLACKLINELifting the view of the skilled trades.#TheLine #Blackline #KPReddy #ZeroRFI #Construction #SkilledTrades #AI #Technology #Leadership #Mentorship
