Listen "Ep.1211 - Desire, Capability, and Respect"
Episode Synopsis
In this podcast we cover: Desire and capability are very different things. When you don't have the capability or the capacity for that matter, passing on defective work ends up being disrespectful actually so does allowing your crew to do work without the capability or capacity. In this episode, I reflect on the crucial difference between desire and capability in construction. I share why sending workers into tasks without the right training is not only unsafe but also disrespectful, and how leaders have the responsibility to protect their crews by ensuring preparation and support. I talk about the importance of planning for variation, because in construction, just like in combat, the enemy gets a vote. This episode is a reminder that true leadership means equipping people not just for the task at hand, but for the challenges and obstacles that will inevitably come.
