🎙️ New Episode: Construct-ive Conversations

Most executives think of safety as a line item. Brian Fielkow says that's the wrong lens entirely.

In this episode, host Eddie Thompson sits down with Brian Fielkow — author of Making Safety Happen and a 30-year veteran of high-hazard industries like recycling, waste, and trucking — to unpack why safety is one of the highest-ROI investments a construction company can make.

A few highlights from the conversation:
🔹 The real cost of a workplace injury goes far beyond the insurance loss run
🔹 Why PPE is your last line of defense, not your first
🔹 How a "just culture" helps leaders separate honest mistakes from reckless ones
🔹 Why unconditional respect for process — no shortcuts, ever — protects your people and your bottom line
🔹 How the right safety culture becomes a competitive advantage that wins bids and retains top talent

If you lead people in a high-risk industry, this one's worth your commute.
