60 years of leadership in Construction

It’s fun seeing good opportunities presented to good people, and I’m not just saying that because this is my dad, Craig Thompson. Yes, I’m biased. But I also recognize how impactful its been having a model of relentless improvement and leadership on my own personal development. A few things in particular that I do my best to emulate: - Doing the right thing always wins. - Principles matter. - You’re never done learning. - Investing in people > investing in process. - Leadership is a choice, not a title. - Just about anything is possible with patience and grit. - You’re responsible for your own success. - Attitude is everything, and it’s contagious. You’ve got a good one McCownGordon Construction. #leadership #sethtalks

🌟 Join Us for an Exclusive Webinar on Federal Real Property Management This Wednesday at noon, the CMAA of Southern California #Owners and #Sustainability Committee is hosting a webinar on the critical challenges of federal real property management. Since 2003, the US Government Accountability Office(#GAO) has identified this as a High-Risk issue due to the vast and diverse portfolio of #federal buildings. The evolving requirements for sustainability and resilience have only added to these challenges. Our expert speakers, Michael Armes and @Matthew Cook, both Assistant Directors at the #GAO, will dive into the #GAO's extensive work on this topic. They will highlight selected reports that provide recommendations to address these pressing challenges, focusing on #sustainability, #resilience, and other key areas. Jeffrey Bowling DPA(c), MCM, CCM, Assoc. DBIA, ENV SP, Program Manager at AECOM and chair of the CMAA of Southern California Sustainability Committee, will serve as the emcee for the event. I'm excited to serve as your moderator. This is a must-attend event for professionals looking to stay ahead of the curve in sustainability and real property management.

Congratulations Jill Here are suggestions for consideration along the way. MiA & some others who attended the Australian Repair Network's Repair Roundtable are keen to see Victoria move from beyond recycling [refer Welsh Government's approach] Your appointment offers a fresh opportunity to move VIC beyond recycling to make more significant impact in the areas of reuse & repair. What was evident from the repair roundtable is that reuse & repair precincts will create jobs in repair, refurbishment, and related industries, as well as upskill workers in the manufacturing and repair sectors. These precincts could incubate and support small repair businesses and social enterprises, fostering local economies and community resilience. Existing, underutilized spaces (like old industrial sites or community centers) could be converted into repair and reuse hubs, maximizing resource efficiency. And there are collaboration opportunities with local councils, educational institutions, and community organizations to integrate these precincts with broader urban planning and community development efforts.

I recently attended a conference, here in Southern California, about the state of the Construction industry. The conference focused on a few particular sectors including, Healthcare, Multifamily, Commercial, Educational, and Heavy Civil. A panel of leaders from some of the top General Contractors and well-respected local Construction Teams, spoke for about 45 minutes. Can you guess what they identified as the #1 biggest challenge in the industry…? ———————————————————————— ATTRACTING AND RETAINING HIGHLY QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS!! ———————————————————————— Follow: Jason Schwab Follow: Tiello #construction #constructionrecruitment #tiello
