You didn't get into construction because it was easy. You're leading teams in an industry where pressure is constant, margins are tight, and "soft skills" still get dismissed as fluff.

But here's what you already know: the old command-and-control playbook is breaking. Turnover is costing you. Projects stall because teams won't speak up. Good people burn out or bail.

This cohort is for leaders who are done pretending everything's fine.

This isn't theory from consultants who've never been on a job site. 

We've worked under pressure, led through resistance, and helped leaders shift when performance and trust were on the line.

Leading in the trades is complex. You're coordinating specialized trades, managing the unpredictability of weather and equipment, and building teams across vastly different experience levels—all while maintaining tight schedules and safety standards.

The Foundation Series gives you the leadership tools to meet these challenges head-on. Over 8 half-day workshops, you'll strengthen the six pillars of effective management:

Based on the G.R.O.U.N.D. Framework©, we will:

• Get Clear: Master communication that cuts through complexity and addresses "sacred cow" team members

• Regulate Emotions: Build emotional consistency that your team can count on, especially under pressure

• Own Your Impact: Develop self-awareness that balances technical expertise with leadership humility

• Uphold Psychological Safety: Create environments where people speak up about hazards, mistakes, and ideas

• Nail the Systems: Design structures for job site coordination, project handoffs, and team processes

• Drive Culture: Architect the behaviours, rituals, and values that define your team

Each session includes construction-specific scenarios, peer feedback, and actionable commitments. Post-program support includes peer accountability pods, a leadership action tracker, and optional 1:1 coaching.

Your technical skills built your career. Your leadership skills will define your legacy.
