  • Empathy and Discipline: The Blueprint for a Safer Construction Site

    Empathy and Discipline: The Blueprint for a Safer Construction Site
    Jul 24 2023
    Imagine a battlefield training and a construction site. Seem worlds apart? Not quite. In the latest episode, we welcome Ryan Brence, a West Point grad, former Army Special Operations officer, and currently, a safety crusader in the construction industry. A man with a mission, Ryan shares how his military training has honed his skills to tackle safety issues in construction, creating environments that are not just physically safe but also emotionally supportive. Get ready to challenge your preconceptions as we delve into the parallels between construction and military service, the significance of a simple, consistent, and scalable safety system, and the role of substance abuse and mental health in construction. We’ll hear from Ryan on how to foster a culture of learning and understanding at the workplace, where mistakes are stepping stones rather than stumbling blocks. We also talk about the power of coaching, leading with empathy, and building a strong foundation of respect and accountability at the job site. As we wrap up, we journey into the exciting opportunities the construction industry offers and the importance of initiative and ownership. Ryan shares his insights on the cyclical nature of work in the industry and its potential impact on mental health and safety. Join us for an open and honest conversation about life post-military service, the challenges and rewards of the construction industry, and the paramount importance of people-centered safety practices. Grab your hard hat, and let's build a safer and more understanding workplace together!
