Podcast appearances and mentions of jason schroeder

In This Episode What happens when a great team is forced to work without a great system? According to Jason Schroeder, the result is predictable—and painful. In this engaging episode of the Systems Simplified podcast, host Adi Klevit sits down with Jason to explore why systems are the ultimate form of respect in the construction industry and how leaders can use them to transform company culture, improve safety, and boost performance. Jason shares how his early exposure to well-run construction projects revealed the power of systems, and how the industry's shift away from structured training led him to found Elevate Construction. He and Adi discuss why many organizations resist change, how to separate system flaws from personal blame, and what makes lean thinking so effective when implemented correctly. Throughout the conversation, Jason emphasizes the role of education, the importance of understanding the “why,” and why real leadership means empowering others through clarity and repeatability. His insights are applicable far beyond construction—any industry can benefit from a systems-first mindset.  

Are you a leader who brings clarity or chaos? In this bold and refreshing episode, Jason Schroeder tackles two tough truths: Why blaming owners for not doing Lean is just an excuse. And what it really means to be a toxic seagull on the jobsite. He unpacks a real conversation with a former CEO who claimed Lean wasn't used because “owners didn't want to pay for it.” Jason respectfully calls BS and explains why doing the right thing isn't optional for real builders. Then it gets personal. Have you ever flown into a project, stirred things up, then flown back to corporate thinking you “added value”? You might be a toxic seagull. This episode will challenge how you show up as a leader, how you serve your team and whether you're dropping solutions… or just dropping crap.   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

Ever feel like your team is sprinting straight into a wall? In this thought-provoking episode, Jason Schroeder breaks down why rushing without clearing roadblocks is one of the most dangerous habits in construction. Using a powerful analogy (spoiler: it involves smashing into walls), Jason challenges one of the most common misapplications of the Last Planner System and percent plan complete (PPC). Discover how a simple language problem—calling everything a “constraint”—is wrecking your team's ability to plan, prioritize, and stay safe. If you've ever been frustrated with chaotic boards, missed milestones, or wasted effort, this is the podcast that will shift your thinking for good.

In this episode of The EBFC show, Felipe Engineer-Manriquez and Jason Schroeder dig into the challenges that the construction industry faces due to the 'bungee effect' – poor planning leading to volatile work schedules and frequent disruptions. They share their expertise on adopting lean and scrum methodologies and maintaining workflow on the job site, discussing their practical strategies for overcoming unpredictable situations.   Through comprehensive conversation, Jason and Felipe shed light on the wider implications of ineffective project management. They share how poor work management practices can lead to increased stress, decreased work pride, and a compromise in project quality. Understanding these facets, the duo stresses the value of adopting efficient planning strategies for enhancing work quality and productivity.   The popular traditional paradigm that 'bigger is always better' has major drawbacks. Instead, you can implement reduced batch sizes and right-sized teams to realize the benefits of frequent and consistent delivery of work. Real-world insights are shared, highlighting the benefits of experimenting with systems and understanding them to make necessary adjustments.   The episode also broadens to reflect on systemic issues affecting the industry, including housing scarcity and a declining workforce driven by socioeconomic conditions. Changemakers are at work to create conditions to serve as flagship examples and emphasize the importance of making structural changes to progress toward a productive and brighter future.   Navigate this transformative episode to gain a nuanced perspective on the construction industry, lean management, and systemic challenges. Learn how to beat the 'bungee effect' and adopt effective strategies to reinforce the resilience of your projects.   #Leanconstruction #respectforpeople #takt #scrum   Referenced Show Links: Lean Takt via YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/c/leanTakt Website at https://www.elevateconstructionist.com/takt-planning/ Takt Guide Website at https://www.taktguide.com/   Connect with Jason via  LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasonschroederelevatingconstruction/     Connect with Felipe via Construction Scrum (book & audiobook) via https://constructionscrum.com/ Social media at https://thefelipe.bio.link Subscribe on YouTube to never miss new videos here: https://click.theebfcshow.com/youtube   --- Today's episode is sponsored by the Lean Construction Institute (LCI).

These awesome brands make The B Practice Podcast possible!Maxxis | Burgtec | Industry NineIn case you have any doubts, Les Gets, France, still produces the best World Cup downhill races. The intensity of the track, the passion of the French crowd, and the ability of French racers to rise to the occasion make Les Gets a picture-perfect stage for iconic racing. Last weekend was no exception, as a dry and loose track delivered a race with less drama, more first-time winners, and a riot-inducing double French victory. Join Dak as he brings you between the tape along with professional bench racers Tanner Stephens and Jason Schroeder. In this episode, the crew chats about Dylan Maples filling in on Commencal Muc-Off, the toughness of Erice van Leuven, the challenge of racing a track like Les Gets that deteriorates so much, Vital's Shorts Bounty, the hardest part of Les Gets being the first two turns, Dean Lucas retiring, and the US Open happening in two weeks, and much more. Thank you so much for listening, and we will see everybody next week for some mid-season chit-chat!

These awesome brands make The B Practice Podcast possible!Maxxis | Burgtec | Industry NineFor the first time, the World Cup circus stopped in Loudenvielle, France, for round #5 of the 2023 World Cup season. The week kicked off with last-minute schedule changes due to the weather and only got weirder from there. Luckily, an insane track and constantly changing conditions delivered some of the most exciting racing of the year. And to top it off, our boy Dak Norton finished second—his best World Cup result to date! Join Dak as he brings you between the tape with his trackside insights and breaks down the excitement from the fresh Loudenvielle track with Tanner Stephens and Jason Schroeder. In this episode, the crew discusses the precedent set by the schedule change in Andorra, why junior racing shouldn't have been canceled, Aaron Gwin crushing it as a commentator, why Loudenvielle was a good DH track and not easy to ride, the Nina vs. Vali battle, Kade Edwards and Thibaut Dapréla doing tuck-no-handers mid-run, the river in the middle of the track, and so much more. Thank you so much for listening, and we will see everybody next week after Les Gets!

In this episode, Hoots and Key review one of the many principles in Jason Schroeder's book Elevating Construction Superintendents. This principle is on personal organization and time management. Time management is an oxymoron. You cannot manage time; you can only manage yourself within the time that has been allotted. Time will go on with or without you! You have to plan your week in order to maximize production! You cannot come into the office on Monday morning and start reading through email first thing! In addition, you must have a good note taking process! There are too many commitments made in meetings for one to remember. Keyan references a book called ‘Eat That Frog!” This comes from the Mark Twain saying that says ‘If you eat a frog first thing every morning, that is likely the worst thing that'll happen to you all day! Are your people aware of what is urgent and important or are they prioritizing their tasks based on the seniority of the person giving them the task? Have you started time blocking and/or time boxing?! If not, you must read Jason's book on how to make sure you're blocking out the right things and then timing yourself as you're completing these tasks.

In this episode of The Inside Line podcast, Jason Schroeder sits down to interview his good friend and past landlord, Austin Smith, better known as Cheddar Child. Originally from Southern California and now residing in Boise, Idaho, Austin is first and foremost a ripping snowboarder. Introduced to mountain biking during his college years, his love for two wheels and digging trails have become his newfound passion. As the current Director of Innovations and Marketing at Bogus Basin Mountain Recreation Area, he has played a huge role in growing Bogus' new bike park, which has moved the needle forward for mountain bike trails in the greater Boise area. He's a staple in the community who is constantly organizing dig days and trying to improve the experience of every rider who visits the park. He also has some of the sickest backyard dirt jumps you'll likely never see and a love for music festivals and drum and bass. Austin is truly a one-of-a-kind individual whose intensity for life and motivated personality leaves an impact on everyone who crosses his path.Have a listen as Austin discusses growing up being a snowboarder in Southern California, jumping beach cruisers at Sheep Hills, what a degree in Ski Business & Resort Management involves, the costs of operating a bike park, what it means to be a nonprofit mountain recreation area, and what it's like being queer in action sports.

We're going to take a trip back in time to 2018 with a previously aired Inside Line featuring Rob Warner. If you didn't know, after this 2022 season, Red Bull will no longer produce the Live webcasts of World Cup Downhill and Cross Country as the UCI sold those rights to the Discovery channel through 2030. Upon hearing the news, I asked Rob if he would still be involved as race commentator, hopeful for a "yes" answer because he has been such an integral part of what makes those shows so exciting to watch. This was his reply, "after this year, it's highly unlikely I'll be commentating on any UCI MTB World Cups for the foreseeable future." and he left it at that. With that answer, I thought it was a great time to revisit our interview from 4 years ago to showcase just how much passion he has for what he does.Thanks to jensonusa.com for supporting The Inside Line.

In this episode, host Adam Hoots chats with Jason Schroeder, owner, trainer, author, and podcast host for Elevate Construction. They discuss Lean's value, vulnerability, productivity, mindset, and more. As Jason says: On we go…. Some quick show points: Watch Jason go #FULLGRANDMA mode on CPM Schedule! Hoots' wedding song is discussed randomly by Jason! Jason breaks down his definition of what Lean is. How does Jason drive productivity? How does he get so much done? Derek Kirkland with DPR gets a shout out as Jason discussed his approach to work/life blend and balance. Would you rather be weak and growing, or strong and stagnant? The duo chat about Lean's value and concur that: That's just what Lean Builders do. It's about humility, being professional, no drama, driving jobs. It's delivering high performing buildings in the most efficient way possible with respect for people. The Lean Builder community is about redefining what the word Lean means. It's centered around people and who we are first. We will elevate ourselves and bring up everyone else with us, and we will learn from the people around us and elevate us and them. In sharing his background, Jason notes he could be called a “snowflake” – sensitive and fragile and unique. Being vulnerable creates trust and connection and it's different for the construction industry and for this former superintendent. He focuses each day to stay centered on his core values to help the people, the workers, and the families in the industry. He's an only child who loves people and by design has 11 children – his treasures – with his wife and business partner, Katie. Adam and Jason discuss why Jason gives away so much information for free – from resource guides and templates to podcasts and other content. It's a philosophical decision that information should be free. It's about caring for people and helping them get the results they want to achieve. Getting content out creates a ripple effect that can drive change in our industry. Now, the application of that information may cost some money (i.e., hiring his team in to help implement and consult). Jason notes though that he focuses more on getting the work done than the money. It's the same with his clients as no client has come in saying, “I want to make more money.” They want a better environment for their people and to change the industry. The output leads to better processes, efficiency, productivity, profit, etc. For Jason Lean is about blessing people and families in the industry. Now, his definition of bullshido – any kind of Lean or operational excellence strategy that doesn't center around people. Jason is fanatical about personal organization and laser focused. He shares some life hacks on how he does it all. He also acknowledges that because he's mission focused, that he also works his butt off as just a natural part of his lifestyle. And he's a natural at finding ways to leverage his time and create synergies. If he's writing a book, he'll focus podcast episodes on chapter topics and transcribe to jump start the writing. Adam gets him to share some pearls of wisdom for those just entering the industry as well. It's about progress and trying and learning. It's not a promise that everything will always be easy or rosy, but we have the power to rise to the occasion and life a remarkable life. Our mindset is a huge factor for our success. Jason's motto is “on we go” --- even if we slow down, we are going forward. There is always tomorrow to try again and improve. Our work is dedicated to the future. We invite you to take a listen and learn – because that's just what Lean builders do. ABOUT HOOTS ON THE GROUND PODCAST: The Lean Builder's absolutely, positively NO bullshido podcast.
