  • 006 - Job Descriptions for Construction Contractors
    Aug 29 2024
    Clarity in job role descriptions is a foundational building block for successful careers and contracting businesses. Each stage of growth makes clarity in job roles both more critical and difficult. The job description itself is relatively simple if you just look at a single role. The challenge is integrating all the different roles together to build a project and company. Dive deep into what truly makes job roles effective. We build upon the last five modules with over 3 hours of practical examples and 50+ additional resources (tools, books, training, and articles) to keep your career and company growing.
