Episode Synopsis

In this episode, Jason Schroeder shares a memorable way to raise jobsite standards and regain operational control using one question: "Whose poop is this?" Through a powerful story from Chip and Dan Heath, Jason explains how people often won't face the truth until they're forced to "trip over it," and how that same principle applies to cleanliness, safety, organization, and follow-up in construction. You'll learn how superintendent and foreman walks—done with the right questions and accountability—can create a culture shift where leaders see the real conditions, get fed up with them, and start fixing problems as a team. What you'll learn in this episode:  Why standards don't rise until people see the "naked truth" of jobsite conditions How superintendent/foreman walks can replace denial with ownership and real follow-through How to use questions, visual standards, and deviations to drive operational excellence Why "no meeting days" create space for field leadership to focus on the how of production How to build culture without chaos by getting leaders to commit, correct, and sustain standards When your team walks the site, do they actually see the problems—or are they still stepping around them and calling it normal?     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 😊).
