About this episode
The episode discusses the importance of providing clear instructions and accountability to teams in the contracting business.
You’re frustrated because your team isn’t following instructions, but the truth is, you haven’t given them a map. In this episode, Derek and Uncle Tim tear down the "Groundhog Day" cycle that keeps contractors broke, tired, and stuck in the field. We dive deep into why fancy binders don't work without accountability and how a simple "flight plan" can save your business from crashing. Stop stealing from your future by being too "busy" to build systems. ================================== Ready to stop swinging the hammer and start leading?
