Most construction pros are never formally taught how contracts actually work—or how risk gets silently shifted onto the people doing the real work. In this episode, we sit down with construction attorney and UC Davis instructor Megan Shapiro, who has spent 15 years litigating disputes and helping subcontractors, manufacturers, and trades avoid the same avoidable mistakes she sees every day in court.
We talk about why some manufacturers absolutely belong on job sites, the dangerous myths around "no redlines," and how Megan's OWN framework (Optimize, Weigh, Negotiate) helps subs protect their business without walking away from the work they need to win.
We also get into power dynamics across the construction food chain, navigating contracts in high-pressure environments, and what it's really like to be a woman showing up with authority in a male-dominated industry. And of course, how Converge Construction Summit went from an offhanded LinkedIn comment to one of the most energizing collaboration hubs in the industry.
