Executive Interviews

What do you see as the biggest challenge in your market?

Human nature. Too often I find a disconnect between what a consumer is willing to pay and their expectations of service quality.As a building contractor i have to overcome a trust barrier, as the general opinion of contractors seems to be quite low.

How do you continue to educate yourself?

I try to read as much as possible, I’ve averaged two books per month for 2020. I also engage in short courses to ensure my skill set and knowledge are always improving.

What role do partnerships and relationships play in your career?

They are critical. In particular I find adviser/mentor relationships very valuable. I cannot over state how obstacles can be reduced by talking to someone who knows more than you do.

What achievement are you most proud of?

1. My marriage2. The fact that i stepped into a very difficult situation and three years later I am still standing.

What’s next in your career?

1. Consolidating and building an effective team2. Finding partners, and clients who share my values
