TODD TAKES
- Humanity is a Strategy: To bring your best self to work, you need to bring your whole self—emotions, life experiences, and work experiences. Ed’s powerful phrase, “Humanity is a strategy,” emphasizes the importance of embracing authenticity and emotional intelligence as a cornerstone of leadership and workplace culture.
- Embracing the Messiness of Emotions: Handling emotions well requires mindfulness and intentionality, especially in a high-pressure industry like construction. While emotions can be messy, construction professionals are some of the most creative problem solvers, uniquely equipped to navigate the complexities of human interaction.
- The Power of Being Exceptionally Average: Ed’s idea of being “exceptionally average” highlights the value of consistent, intentional effort over perfectionism. It’s about excelling in the fundamentals, which takes discipline and focus, ultimately leading to sustainable success.
