Scale Without Chaos: Rockefeller Habits for Construction Business Owners

Kevin Episode 10

If your construction business is in that $500K–$5M range, and you’re still making every decision, solving every problem, and holding everything together by force of will—this episode is for you.

We break down Mastering the Rockefeller Habits by Verne Harnish, and show how three dead-simple systems can help you:

  • Set a clear, company-wide priority every quarter
  • Create short, effective meeting rhythms that replace constant firefighting
  • Use one number per person to boost accountability—without drowning in data

These aren’t corporate gimmicks. They’re the foundational tools that help you go from tradesperson to true business owner—without losing your mind.

We close with one practical step you can take this week to start shifting from reactive chaos to aligned execution.
