Listen "Ep.1217 - Humans Are Mirrors"
Episode Synopsis
In this podcast we cover: How human beings will reflect how they're treated. How we can approach people from a sincere win-win perspective. In this episode I share a powerful concept I call "Humans Are Mirrors." The way we treat others will always be reflected back to us, whether in jobsite culture, contracts, or day-to-day interactions. I talk about how conditions like messy bathrooms, poor facilities, and harsh contract language are not random problems but direct reflections of how people feel they are being treated. If we approach workers with respect, provide clean and safe spaces, and foster trust, they will respond in kind. When we lead with care, kindness, and professionalism, we build stronger relationships and more productive teams. I also share examples from our boot camp in Canada, discuss the feedback we receive from listeners, and highlight the free resources and simulations we are creating to help teams learn and grow. This episode is an invitation to rethink how we interact with others, not just in construction but in every part of life. If you want better outcomes, stronger collaboration, and a healthier culture, it starts with how you show up. Remember, humans will always reflect the treatment they receive.
