In this episode, Jason Schroeder speaks directly to field engineers with a simple principle that separates average builders from future leaders: the measure of your success is how many questions you ask. He explains why the "I didn't want to bother you" mindset leads to mistakes, rework, and slower growth, and why asking questions is how you fail forward faster and build real competence in the field. Jason also shares a leadership training example that shows why kids often learn faster than adults—because they try, fail, ask, and try again without fear—and challenges field engineers to build that same habit on purpose. ·       What you'll learn in this episode: ·       Why asking questions is the fastest path to growth for field engineers, foremen, and future supers ·       How "I didn't want to bother you" creates avoidable mistakes in layout, embeds, lift drawings, and more ·       Why asking questions in meetings saves time and prevents everyone from silently staying confused ·       How "fail forward faster" works—and why fear and pride slow your learning down ·       A practical challenge: track your questions daily and make asking 15+ per day a standard habit Are you trying to learn construction like an island or are you willing to ask the questions that make you dangerous in a good way?    If you like the Elevate Construction podcast, please subscribe for free and you'll never miss an episode.  And if you really like the Elevate Construction podcast, I'd appreciate you telling a friend (Maybe even two 😊).
