The Construction MF'ers
Leading a successful construction or manufacturing business can be tough. To survive, sometimes you have to be a real MF'er. We get it -- we're real MF'ers, too. MF'ers do what's right, pay it forward, lead through action, and get the job done. What did YOU think we meant by MF'ers? In THE Construction MF'ers, Mobilization Funding CEO and Co-Founder, Scott Peper, sits down with construction and manufacturing leaders to learn what they are doing differently and why it works. With a focus on communication, culture, and collaboration, The CONSTRUCTION MF'ERS tackles issues like labor, mental health, diversity, and growth with purpose.
