This book is a guide on how to begin, nurture and finish successful construction projects. Written for contractors, property owners and anyone involved in the construction process, the book is rich in illustrative stories and point-by-point advice. It also contains powerful interviews with noted mediators, customers and construction professionals. It evolved out of years of working in the construction industry and learning to do just what is described. Contrary to widely held belief, it IS possible for construction projects to be successful for all concerned, and even fun! Building on basic principles of clarity, mutual respect and intentional collaboration, this book takes the reader on a surprising journey into the dynamics involved in any successful working relationship, told here through the field of construction. It delves into the power of intention, assumption and expectation, and the importance of a positive attitude for any project. This book is hands-on, and it is not theory. It is proven practices and real-life stories.
