About the Program
We're not really suggesting that you stop building things. It is, after all, what you do. But it may be time to get out of a "construction" mindset, redefine your value proposition, and reframe your business around that proposition. But where to start? And what direction should you take? In the best-selling book Competing for the Future, the author suggest a critical first step: "If a top management team cannot clearly articulate the five or six fundamental industry trends that most threaten its firm's continued success, it is not in control of the firm's destiny." This program unravels the trends that are impacting the industry, but more importantly, it introduces nine business principles (Construction 3.0TM) that industry managers and executives can implement that will allow their company to not only survive but thrive in today's hyper-competitive marketplace. - Improve your ability to compete
- Build an organization that attracts top people and clients
- Boost profitability by removing the obstacles to that goal
- Position your company as a problem-solver so you won't have to compete on price
This Program Is Important If You Are.... - Struggling to maintain profitability.
- Scrambling just to get work.
- Having difficulty finding and keeping enough qualified craftspeople and managers.
