Why proven systems outperform scrappy hustle – with Brad Leavitt & Tim Coughran

Today on “The Building Code”, Charley sits down in studio with two of the best in the business: Brad Leavitt of AFT Construction and Tim Coughran of Alderview Construction.

• Why custom homes still need standard systems
• How to use Buildertrend features like daily logs and QR-coded change orders to streamline jobs
• What real leadership looks like in growing your team and retaining talent
• Why your business needs to be a career path, not a stepping stone
