## Resource

In this episode, Jason explains the vital connection between total participation and total connection on construction projects. He asserts that in order to create a successful project, you must have the full involvement of every team member, and that begins with making personal connections. What you'll learn in this episode: Why total participation is impossible without total connection. The importance of the morning worker huddle in building that connection. How human connection drives project success and leads to lean practices. Why disrespecting the morning huddle undermines collaboration and project outcomes. The role of effective communication and team-building in a successful construction project. What's standing in the way of getting everyone on your project to fully participate? Could it be a lack of real connection? If you like the Elevate Construction podcast, please subscribe for free and you'll never miss an episode.
