If you could start over, what would you do differently on a construction project you’ve previously overseen?
If I could start over on a construction project, I would make sure to communicate with my team more often. In my last role as a foreman, I was so focused on getting the job done that I didn’t always take time to check in with my crew members.
This led to some confusion among the workers, which caused delays and other issues. Now, I make an effort to speak with each of my employees at least once per day to ensure they have all the information they need to get their jobs done.
