Poor project management leads to massive financial losses in the construction industry (up to $40 BILLION each year), but this can be avoided with effective communication. By improving communication skills, contractors can avoid costly mistakes and improve overall project outcomes.

Last month I hosted a roundtable webinar alongside Charley Burtwistle from The Building Code Podcast and two high-performing builders who’ve cracked the code on running smoother, more profitable projects.

Today, it’s coming to you as a bonus episode.

You’ll hear how Dylan from Tectonic Design Build and Toby and Bradley from New Beginnings Construction systemized their project management, defined key roles, and created a repeatable communication rhythm that keeps things on time and on budget—even on multi-million dollar projects.

Episode highlights:

• Understand WHY project management is so hard to execute properly
• Learn how to transform your PMs from glorified errand boys to forward-thinking team leaders
• Get tips for holding subcontractors accountable so they deliver quality work, consistently
