Seeing Through Trade Partners' Eyes This short episode reframes “problems with the trades” as problems with systems, culture, and inputs. Jason explains why most crews arrive wary and defensive, how our consistency can pull them back into a window of tolerance, and why emotionally intelligent supervision beats control. You will leave with a humane, practical lens that improves trust, flow, and results. You will learn: Why blaming people fails and fixing systems works. The idea of ill-wired vs ill-prompted behavior and why inputs matter. How to earn trust in six to eight weeks with consistent huddles, pull planning, and clear norms. What emotionally intelligent superintendents do and why one toxic leader can sink a site. Who should listen: Supers, assistant supers, foremen, and field engineers ready to replace control with trust and get better work from better systems.

In this episode, Jason sits down with his mentor, Hal Macomber, to unpack a fresh perspective that could change how you see Takt forever. We cover: Why Takt Construction must be seen as a standardized system, not a piecemeal set of practices. The five components of Takt as an operating system: thinking, people, practices, agreements, and assessments. The three core principles that make or break flow on projects. How second-order thinking and inversion can prevent costly mistakes in the field. Why people not just tools are the real drivers of continuous improvement. Whether you're leading a mega data center or a 100-unit wood frame project, this conversation will challenge the way you approach flow, people, and production laws in construction. If you've ever felt Takt is “just a tool,” this episode will reframe it as the socio-technical operating system that can transform projects big and small.

In this episode. Jason is catching up on powerful lessons and field-tested practices that can make your projects safer, cleaner, and more effective. Here's what you'll learn: The Builder's Code: How you treat workers and foremen is exactly how they'll treat the building, and what the client ultimately experiences. Lessons from Japan (Gemba): Start with 2–3S (sort, straighten, shine), watch people's movement, and stop where things don't make sense to reveal hidden constraints. Problems vs. Dilemmas: A problem has a clear solution; a dilemma forces you to choose between imperfect options. Jason shares examples every builder will recognize. Trash Management Done Right: Pre-kit and pre-cut to reduce waste, use scrap-out units, and manage dumpsters with visual Kanban triggers at half or three-quarters full. Daily Logistics Discipline: Assign a logistics owner to check the perimeter, cleanliness, recycling, and traffic control every single day. Why Saturdays Don't Work: Crews show up thin, productivity drops, and you lose momentum. Stop relying on weekend work as the answer. AEDs on Every Site: More lives are lost to cardiac arrest than auto accidents. Affordable AEDs (around $1,400) save lives. Every project needs one. This episode is practical, fast-moving, and packed with insights you can take straight to the field.

Are you running on continuous improvement or just the appearance of it? In this fast, practical conversation, Jason sits down with Patrick Adams, author of Avoiding the Continuous Appearance Trap, to expose the difference and show leaders how to build systems that actually sustain. What you will hear: Patrick's journey from the United States Marine Corps to leading Lean Solutions and coaching teams worldwide. The trap: companies that look “lean” on the surface but suffer toxic culture, high turnover, and flat KPIs. The telltales of a true CI culture: clear expectations that cascade to the front line, time and space to problem-solve, and relentless sustainment. Why short-term fixes fail and why real operational excellence takes structured daily behaviors, not silver bullets. How Patrick's 12 questions help leaders assess where they are and design their own roadmap. One practical challenge: Adopt leader standard work today. Structure your day, review it at the end, and align your actions to the results you claim to want.

I had to wait a couple days to actually make sure the story of the Superintendent of the Des Moines School District is true. It's so outrageously unbelievable that ICE picked him up and arrested him that it can only be the beginning of many, many more white collar scammers in our country getting caught. President Trump scores another big settlement against a media giant and is creating quite a large bankroll for his presidential library. It comes on the heels of a possible government shutdown for "non essential" agencies and employees at midnight tonight. Count me in. I voted for ending non-essential. The NFL appears to have an "effort" problem from several players this past weekend and its something they've never had to deal with. They'd better get their arms around this fast or they would be risking the core reason people love the league. The Chiefs defense continues to get zero credit as they reached another milestone streak on Sunday, the baseball playoffs start with a couple epic wild card series and our Final Final is a celebrity couple on the rocks.

Most of us see stress as the villain in our story. But what if it's actually a tool, even a superpower? In this episode, Jason Schroeder is joined by licensed therapist Barbara Hettinger, who brings years of experience in trauma, family, and mental health work. Together, they break down how stress works, why it isn't inherently “bad,” and how you can flip the script to use stress as fuel for focus, growth, and resilience. What you'll take away from this episode: Why stress is neutral not good, not bad and how your response makes the difference. A three-step method to acknowledge, welcome, and use stress to your advantage. How reframing stress can turn ADHD, OCD, or daily struggles into hidden superpowers. Practical tools to stay within your “window of tolerance” and find calm under pressure. Real stories from the field about leaders transforming stress into clarity and action. This isn't just another talk about “managing stress.” It's about re-imagining it as a force that can sharpen your edge and strengthen your leadership. If you're in construction or just navigating the stress of daily life, this episode will help you rethink the pressure you feel and use it to build something remarkable.

This episode isn't comfortable and it's not meant to be. Jason takes on a tough but necessary conversation about the cultural mindset that's holding us back. Too often, we wear stagnation, ignorance, and fear like badges of honor. “I haven't read a book in 30 years.” “We've always done it this way.” “AI will take our jobs.” These aren't harmless phrases, they're symptoms of decline. Jason draws from history, industry, and hard truth to challenge us: Why fear and ignorance have become tools of control in governments, companies, and even daily conversations. How the U.S. once thrived on continuous improvement, education, and courage and what it would take to reclaim that mindset. Why tariffs, isolation, and complacency are signs of decline not solutions. What construction professionals can do to reject stagnation and become the true voices of progress. This isn't about politics. It's about leadership, courage, and the future of our industry and our nation. If you're tired of seeing fear and ignorance celebrated, and you're ready to step into improvement and knowledge, this is an episode you can't afford to skip.

Is “constructive criticism” really constructive or is it just disguised negativity? Jason takes a bold stance in this episode: criticism should not exist. Instead, he unpacks the difference between criticism and feedback for improvement and why only one of them builds people up, drives growth, and creates healthier cultures in construction and beyond. In this episode you'll learn: Why criticism damages trust, triggers ego, and stalls progress. The clear definition of feedback for improvement and why it works. How servant leadership rejects punishment and embraces growth. Why respecting people means replacing blame with actionable guidance. How shifting from criticism to feedback transforms teams, prisons, even society. This isn't just about construction. It's about how we treat each other as humans. If we want a better industry and a better world, we need to stop tearing people down and start helping them improve. Listen in, and let's build cultures that elevate people instead of discarding them. If you like the Elevate Construction podcast, please subscribe for free and you'll never miss an episode.
