E107 - Raw Communication with Lance Furuyama

The Uncommon Communicator

Ever found yourself in the thick of a construction project, where every voice has the potential to build or bulldoze progress? Lance Ferriyama from Trade Partner HQ joins us to hammer down the significance of communication in the trade industry, offering a blueprint for turning monologues into dialogues that construct rather than constrain. Together, we're chipping away at the old-school 'sizing-up' culture and reengineering it into one of collaboration and respect – because, in this field, a solid foundation isn't just about the concrete.
Navigating the complexities of the construction site is much like calling a truce in a high-stakes standoff – it calls for tact, strategy, and a willingness to listen. We lay out the tools for construction managers and superintendents to become architects of inclusivity, ensuring every voice is heard from the ground up. And just when you think the blueprint is clear, we tackle the frustration of silos and the art of breaking them down, sharing a personal tale from a San Jose project that could've used some serious demolition in the communication department.
But what happens when the hard hats come off? Lance and I dissect the raw, unfiltered essence of communication, extending beyond the job site to social media and beyond. Discover the power of authentic communication as we reflect on a 'UC moment' where staying true to oneself isn't just good for morale, it's good for business. Join us, and let's build bridges with words, one authentic conversation at a time.
