Shauna Nichole ,

Wow, power triangle.

Listening to episode 28 The Power Triangle, was one of the best podcast episodes I’ve listened to in awhile. It helped me learn why my approach to innovation through the aerospace industry has been hard to implement in the construction industry. Thanks for sharing a lot of helpful information!
