Leadership Tools: Quote: BIM is 10% technology and 90% sociology. Scott Simpson. Book: BIM and Construction Management by Brad Hardin and Dave McCool.

There is a lot of technology involved and many technical challenges.  But ultimately the biggest challenges are about talent:

  • Working collaboratively across functional areas and companies
  • Learning new things - constantly
  • Dealing with setbacks - constantly
  • Longer range project planning than is typical
  • Planning with a greater attention to detail than is typical
  • Designing for fabrication and installation with automation where possible 
  • Greater transparency across everyone on the whole project delivery team

Underlying Causes of Changes on Projects
Start improving your change management skills by creating some categories of the underlying causes of changes your company experiences.
Talent vs. Tools - Talented People Creating Value
Contractors are faced with more choices in tools than ever thanks to technology. With so many choices it is easy to fall into one of three traps. It is important to remember that it is people who create value; tools only enhance what people can do.
Competencies vs. Confidence vs. Success
Sustainable growth comes when confidence is kept in alignment with the competencies required to effectively serve the customer.
