At Miles-McClellan Construction, rapid growth and market uncertainty put leadership under pressure. Instead of just tightening budgets or systems, they chose to double down on culture.
In this episode, Chris talks with Devin Stein (VP of HR) and Owen Wyss (CFO) about what it takes to align strategy with people, accelerate trust on an executive team, and prepare the next generation of leaders.
This conversation explores:
-
Why leadership development pays off in performance and morale
-
How trust and vulnerability fast-tracked executive alignment
-
Practical shifts that helped managers lead with more clarity and meaning
Whether you’re an HR leader, a CFO, or a CEO facing growth pressures, this episode shows how culture work can unlock results faster than strategy alone.
