In this episode, Jason tackles a powerful listener question about tiered huddles and the real meaning of ownership in construction. He challenges one of the biggest myths in the industry, that you can "shed risk" without shedding responsibility and explains why this mindset is holding companies back from true Lean flow.
You'll learn:
- Why "we're a country of lawyers" is more than a joke, it's a cultural barrier to teamwork.
- How to build a daily tiered-meeting system that actually drives results across projects.
- What the Japanese get right about afternoon huddles, make-ready planning, and Gemba leadership.
- How PMs and Supers can stay connected without burning out.
Jason also drops updates on Elevate's global impact from Spanish, German, and Japanese translations to the free Takt Production System for Students course now available for universities.
If you've ever felt stuck between accountability and overload, this one will re-wire how you lead your teams.
Listen now and stop shedding what you were built to own.
