The construction industry has had a darn good 10-12 year run, and most are in about as good financial and attitudinal positions as they’ve ever enjoyed. That’s good, right? Well… yes and no. We all hope and pray for abundance: how can it be both a curse as well as a blessing?

Please tune in this week as Dennis discusses the potential problems associated with long-term success and abundance. What are the five downsides, what do you do about them, and how do you avoid complacency and the other problems associated with success and abundance? What do you think?

Invest in your rising high-potential leaders by enrolling them to our one-of-a-kind leadership development program – The Contractor Business Boot Camp where they will get an opportunity to learn the key leadership skills they will need for their jobs. The Dallas class starts on Feb 22-23, 2024. Seats are filling up fast so contact Charlotte at ckopp@familybusinessinstitute.com today for more information.
