Andrew S. Grove (Founder, former Chairman and CEO of Intel) has a lot of great insight about both day-to-day management as well as how to lead through the inflection points that every company faces.

Quote: Bad companies are destroyed by crisis. Good companies survive them. Great companies are improved by them. Andrew S. Grove.

It is the rigorous daily management systems that build a team capable of rapidly identifying then growing through crisis. 

This insight about dealing with challenges applies at the company level but stands on a foundation at the team and ultimately at the individual level.

How would you evaluate your team’s situational awareness when it comes to seeing changes in the industry and how you can turn those into opportunities?  


We work with contractors to align every element of their organization around effective strategies.  More importantly we work with their teams to continuously prepare them for dealing with the inevitable bumps in the road they will experience.

5C Troubleshooting of Performance
Ask great questions around the five interrelated categories that cause most failures in outcomes or process, including choice, capabilities, capacity, controls, and the conditions in which all those occurred.
Process Improvement and Cycle Times
When contractors grow inefficient processes usually get substantially more inefficient dramatically changing the Return on Investment (ROI) model. Saving a few minutes over 1,000 cycles per month means $60K+ potential savings over a couple years.
A Business Exists to Serve a Customer
Without satisfied and growing customers, nothing else a contractor does will matter. Few things are more profitable for contractors than recurring work negotiated with a select group of project owners.
