Escuchar Built Revolution Podcast

Earlier this year, Nate Scott, Principal of Continuum Advisory Group, began compiling a monthly US Construction Spending Summary to share with our clients. In this episode, Kelcey Henderson reviews the latest data release with Nate and gets answers to a few questions from friends. Listen in as we discuss highlights of what's currently going on in construction.

Welcome to Episode 1 of Continuum Advisory Group's Strategy Miniseries. In this series, we discuss our work with clients on how they can win in their business environment with a focus on the psychology of leadership in our VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) environment. In the first episode, we introduce the four strategic imperatives that will be the foundation for the future of the series:    1.  Scan the business environment continually    2.  Share (overshare) strategic information    3.  Continually evaluate internal processes and operational effectiveness    4.  Develop a collaborative and efficient decision-making process

There has been a huge push for ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) and Sustainability throughout the construction industry recently. In this episode, Kelcey Henderson talks to Brian Stamper from Advantic about the drive toward carbon neutral (or even negative) in the data center space.
