What if the key to solving the housing crisis lies within the construction industry itself? Meet Atilla Réshad, Head of Construction Divison at Cape Group, as he takes us through his impressive 20-year construction career journey. Atilla's transition from an estimator to a leading director offers a unique perspective on the evolving landscape of construction practices. Discover how proactive strategies and collaborative pre-construction meetings involving superintendents, project managers, and estimators ensure comprehensive project scopes and successful outcomes.
In this episode, Atilla also sheds light on the pressing issues plaguing the construction industry, including new regulations that stretch project timelines and inflate costs. He explores the necessity of balancing safety standards with streamlined permit processes to effectively address the housing crisis. Additionally, we tackle cultural barriers that discourage the younger generation from entering the construction field and discuss how showcasing success stories and rapid career advancement can attract new talent.
Tune in for an enlightening conversation that goes beyond blueprints and hard hats to the heart of an industry in transition.
