In this podcast we cover:

What weaponized incompetence is.
How you can spot it.
What to do about it.

In this episode, I explore the concept of weaponized incompetence and its impact on the construction industry. I share how this behavior shows up when people pretend they cannot perform basic tasks like scheduling, using a computer, or leading a meeting, all as a way of avoiding responsibility. I connect this mindset to other patterns like CPM scheduling, which often functions as a tool for avoidance rather than accountability. Along the way, I talk about the importance of creating new learning opportunities, such as a Takt Production System course for universities, to raise the standard for the next generation of builders. This episode is both a call to action and a reminder that we cannot afford to excuse incompetence when it is used as a shield. By recognizing it, refusing to tolerate it, and choosing to elevate ourselves, we can build stronger teams and better projects for the future.
