Led by Amit Kothari, we have guided countless business leaders in growing and transforming their organizations including creating and achieving a corporate vision, mergers and acquisitions, post-acquisition integration, corporate turnaround, and restructuring. Our leaders are typically C-level executives or partners of service organizations, who lead teams of 20 – 1,000 people; essentially stakeho

lders from employees to customers to investors. We work directly with our client, and then include various levels of organizational management, as needed to align actions and behaviors to exceed corporate goals. We value simple, practical advice that can be implemented immediately, generating positive momentum that leads to accelerated results. Our methods work to exceed corporate goals by transforming the leader, both in the outlook and the substance of their thoughts. This includes removing psychological blockages (fear, uncertainty, and doubt), allowing you to focus and analyze the underlying issues in your company; empowering you to achieve a higher level of leadership and true results.

As we have discussed repeatedly this month, we are now looking at a reality where we are dealing with supply chain disruption, some of the highest inflation rates since the early 1980s, and a shortage of qualified workers. There is a risk that this could lead to project delays, cancellations, delayed payments, and an inability to respond to market needs as more and more businesses and consumers are beginning to feel the strain of the looming financial crisis. As the situation is impacting businesses in very different ways, we would love to know what you think are some of the biggest risks that businesses are facing in 2022.

Why do Construction Companies Need Leadership Coaching today?

Over the last decade, the economy was growing by leaps and bounds and many businesses were seeing substantial YOY growth. When the pandemic began, these same businesses had to reassess the state of their business and quickly learned the importance of keeping their best people and finding the best clients.

For example, I have been working with a client for the past two years that decided to invest heavily in their company culture and their people, even during the height of COVID. This client recently told me that they had been hitting their budgets, completing work on time, and that the quality of their products upon owner walk through was impeccable. As we all know, these are the magic ingredients to building customer loyalty right from the start and these are likely to be clients for life.

It is important to remember that being a good leader means having a front line that has the skills and drive to execute a project and that are speaking and living by your purpose. This will help you leverage and deliver the most out of the least which will help you get through a financial downturn

When it comes to a leadership transition, there are three main things that every business owner should do to ensure that their businesses aren't disrupted.

Staff loyalty

When someone leaves the organization, it is important to look around and map who is loyal to the person who is leaving. You then need to find out what those people love about the company, what they love about their career path, and what obstacles they feel they are facing. See if there are any similarities between their stories as they can tell you a lot about whether or not those people may also leave.

Their methodologies

When a person is leaving, make sure to pay close attention to the methodologies and frameworks that they are using to run the company and manage your day to day business. If the structures in place are working, then it makes sense to maintain them. Not only will this make it easier for you, but it will also make it easier for the team to transition.

Customer relationships

Reflect on the best business relationships that that person has. Try to talk to those customers to find out whether or not they are loyal to that person or loyal to your company.

While many of us coasted into 2022 thinking that perhaps the worst is behind us, the future once again looks a bit uncertain and it may seem like we simply can't catch a break.

Fortunately, with careful strategic planning, you can be prepared for any changes in the economic environment and you can actually help safeguard your company from some of the worst pitfalls.

Here are a few key things that some construction companies are doing to prepare for an uncertain future.

Embedding more purpose in the company through cultural initiatives with their management team and their front line team.
Increasing their ability to manage risk.
Reviewing customer, employee, and vendor relationships to ensure that they can survive, and hopefully thrive, in an economic downturn.
Auditing customer and prospect lists and removing any "C" list clients. This gives them the opportunity to focus on the As and Bs while evaluating any prospects to see if they have the same characteristics as your A list clients.

As we move forward into 2022, businesses have been struggling with economic uncertainty, rising costs, and the inability to fill key roles in their organizations.

As the world slowly begins to go back to normal after the COVID-19 pandemic, we are now faced with some of the highest inflation rates since the early 1980s, supply chain disruption, and a shortage of qualified workers. This has put a major strain on many businesses and there is a risk that this could lead to project delays and cancellations and an inability to respond to market needs.

Luckily, more automated tools have entered the market which has helped streamline some of the processes and procedures and has helped lighten the workload. Unfortunately, this doesn't mean we should just continue with business as usual.

With so much uncertainty in the market, we would love to know what you think are the biggest challenges facing construction companies in 2022.

This quote by W. Clement Stone couldn't be more appropriate in the business world. While we may have big dreams of how we want our business to look (big doors), it is the systems that we have in place and the small changes that we make to those that help us make those dreams come to life.

When you are looking at your business, it is imperative that you focus on the small hinges rather than focusing on the big doors. These are the things that will help you achieve your goals. This could be anything from refining operational procedures to reducing costs to putting the right people into the right roles. When all of these small hinges are moving the way that they should be, the big door will naturally begin to swing open.

The economy has stalled, inflation is high, and there is talk of a recession looming ahead. As a business leader, it is more important than ever for you to stand with your team and lead them through these troubling times.

Investing in your team is one of the best ways to show them that you are committed to their success both now and in whatever lies ahead. It also helps increase engagement levels which is critical for making it through an economic downturn.

An engaged team can help seek new business opportunities, cut down on operational costs, and help streamline procedures and it is in every business leader's best interest to do what they can now to protect themselves in the future.

So our question is….

What ’s your #1 employee engagement strategy for 2022?

- Deliver Benefits/Perks
- Increase salaries
- Training and development
- Company culture
