Ep.1510 - Showcase Series

In this episode, Jason Schroeder responds to a listener asking for a practical, step-by-step way to implement Lean on real projects. Jason explains the six-part structure of his new "Elevating Construction the Lean Way" series, then shares his bigger vision: recording real jobsite, step-by-step "how-to" training—from primary control and site setup to meeting systems—so teams can see exactly what "Lean in the field" looks like. He also makes the point that Lean only works when leadership is truly aligned and willing to go all in, together.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• The 6-part framework Jason uses to define Lean in construction.
• Why "how-to" Lean requires real projects, real crews, and real documentation — not theory.
• What a step-by-step jobsite video series could cover (from control points to site setup and signage).
• Why Lean implementation needs leadership alignment and authority—not side efforts.
• How Jason is building tools, content, and opportunities to showcase Lean at the GC and trade partner level.

If you wanted to build Lean "for real" on your site, what would you start documenting and standardizing first?
