In construction, leadership transitions carry more than just a change in titles—they affect projects, safety, client trust, and company culture. One of the biggest challenges for contractors is ensuring a smooth transfer of leadership to the next generation. Too often, this process is approached without adequate planning, creating risks that threaten long-term success. While legal and financial aspects are important, the most common stumbling blocks are often communication breakdowns. In this session, M.J. Clark, Vice President of Integrated Leadership Systems, and Scott Thompson, president of Thompson Concrete, will share proven strategies for identifying emerging talent, building leadership skills, and creating a culture of coaching, training, and development that sets future leaders up for success.
