Our jobsite boards are supposed to make things clearer but are they actually holding us back? In this episode, I break down the biggest mistakes the industry is making with field boards, from confusing “constraints” with “roadblocks” to locking critical look-ahead schedules inside the trailer where crews can't see them. You'll hear: Why our visuals for the Last Planner System are nowhere near where they need to be. The difference between constraints and roadblocks and why mixing them up kills flow. How to rethink board placement so information actually reaches the field. The setup I recommend for maximum clarity, collaboration, and implementation. If you want your boards to actually drive results instead of gathering dust, this one's for you.

What do high-performing construction crews and top-tier cooking shows have in common? Full kit - having everything you need in place before the work starts. In this episode, Jason Schroeder break down why full kit isn't just a Lean buzzword, it's the difference between smooth production and chaos on site. Using the cooking show analogy, we'll explore how foremen can set their teams up like master chefs, with every tool, material, and resource ready before “go time.” You'll learn: The real meaning of full kit and why it matters more than you think. How CPM thinking can derail production (and what to do instead). Why timing and preparation beat “critical path” obsession every time. How to eliminate the last-minute scrambles that kill flow. If you want your crew to run like a well-produced cooking show, no missing parsley, no “where's the measuring cup?” moments, this episode is for you.
