Construction Leadership ADVANCE: Build Leaders Who Own The Day-To-Day

Leadership As A Force Multiplier

Spend two days in Nashville and leave with a leadership team that owns the day-to-day, so you can focus on strategy, key relationships, and high-leverage decisions instead of constant firefighting.

Only a few seats remaining. Registration closes September 22, 2026.

 Who This Is For 

This event is for you if:

  • You own a construction business doing roughly $1M–$20M per year in custom homes, remodeling, or commercial GC work.
  • You’re still the person everyone comes to for decisions, approvals, and “what do we do?”
  • You’ve got good people, but they still bring problems instead of solutions.
  • You want your leaders making better decisions, owning results, and holding others accountable so you can stop living in firefighting mode.

You’re welcome to come alone as the owner, or bring key leaders and future leaders with you.

     Why You Can’t Get This In Your Hometown 

    Your local builders’ association and networking groups are full of competitors or people who aren’t serious about growing.

    ​​​​​​​

    In Nashville you’ll spend two days with construction owners and leaders from across the U.S. and Canada who are:

    • Running real 7–8 figure construction businesses
    • Dealing with the exact same team and leadership problems you are
    • Open to sharing what’s working inside their companies

    You’ll hear how other builders handle delegation, accountability, and decision-making, and you’ll walk away with ideas and connections you simply can’t get locally.

     What You'll Walk Away With 

    By the time you leave Nashville, you will have:


    • Leaders who think like intrapreneurs, not just employees
      Your team will see where they’ve been acting like “doers” instead of intrapreneurs and what it looks like to take real ownership in your company.

    • Clear responsibilities and fewer “everything runs through me” bottlenecks
      You’ll clarify who owns what, where decisions have been getting stuck, and what needs to shift so more gets done without you.

    • A realistic 30-day plan to transfer responsibility off your plate
      You and your leaders will leave with a short, written plan for what changes first when you get home: what you’ll stop doing, what they’ll start doing, and how you’ll hold each other accountable.

    • Stronger buy-in and alignment from your leaders
      ​​​​Instead of you trying to “sell” your team on new ideas after the fact, they’ll be in the room, doing the work with you, and committing to changes in front of their peers.

    • More time and mental bandwidth for the big levers
      ​​​​​​​With less micromanagement and more ownership from your leaders, you’ll have more capacity for strategy, key relationships, better clients, and the next stage of growth.

    Inside The Two Days 

    Day 1: Leadership As A Force Multiplier
    • Why the next level of growth will not come from you working harder, but from leaders who create accountability around you.

    • Owners and leaders separate to deal honestly with friction, overfunctioning, and what’s really getting in the way.

    • How to focus on the right work each week so your team stops drowning in distractions.

    • Communication skills your leaders need to create buy‑in, push back the right way, and lead up to you.

      Day 2: Delegation, Decision Speed, and Execution
      • How owners and leaders delegate in a way that work actually gets done without constant chasing.

      • How to speed up decisions so projects stop stalling while someone “waits on the owner.”

      • Company work session where you turn the last two days into a simple, 30‑day leadership action plan.

      • Peer groups by role so your PMs, integrators, and other leaders have people they can call after the event.
