EPISODE 399: Do you often find yourself reacting to problems instead of making progress?

Many construction business owners feel like they’re stuck in a loop of chaos, constantly chasing the next urgent task. 

But what if you could get ahead of the game? What if you could plan for success rather than react to it? What if you could finally check off the goals that have been collecting dust on the shelf?

In this episode of the Construction Leading Edge podcast, I’ll reveal a simple but powerful way to transform your business using “right-to-left” thinking.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

  • What right-to-left thinking is, and how it differs from traditional goal setting

  • How working backwards from your goals can help your business grow with less stress

  • 5 key areas in your business where you can apply right-to-left thinking

  • How these shifts will give you greater clarity in your business and help you make better decisions

  • The impact of a solid handoff process on projects

…and more!
