Building Your Leadership "Toolbox"

As a leader in a construction business you must build your own toolbox.  Just like the craft tools; many of the leadership tools require training, coaching and constant practice to be truly effective.  

And just like a journey level craftsperson a leader is constantly training others on how to use the tools while always continuing their road towards mastery.
