Leadership Day Bootcamp for the Trades
No-Nonsense Practical Leadership Skills for Forepersons, Crew Leads & Site Supers
Description
You don’t learn leadership in trade school—but once you’re running a crew, managing subs, or running a job site, leadership is exactly what’s expected of you. This hands-on, full-day leadership boot camp is built for construction professionals who want to get better at leading people, not just projects.
You’ll walk away with practical tools to manage your crew with confidence, reduce conflict, build trust, and create a work culture where people show up, step up, and stick around. Whether you’re a lead hand, foreperson, or construction business owner, this course is designed to help you lead by example and build high-performing, respectful teams—without the fluff.
