Future Builders Crash Course Product Strategy

Potential Selection Engine for General Managers

• Systems managers are trained to manage through the lens of construction. A construction manager is not the right role.
  • GM builds.
• Logic - solid skills during the Crash Course (boot camp part of it) - validate basics of procedures and ergonomic efficiency - such literacy badly lacking in most participants and even in seasoned builders
• The Crash Course does not “train construction managers.” It reveals who can become one.
• “Builder Crash Course: Construction Literacy for the General Public”. “Optional Construction Manager Track for those who demonstrate aptitude”
  • Not - “Learn to be a construction manager” (this attracts the wrong people). Internal language. “This course is a filter and formation ground for future CMs”. “CMs are selected, not self-declared”
• Systems skills is more important that construction skill.
• Unobtanium.
• thus - need to build them myself - All managers are builders, but not all builders are managers.
• should NOT predefine a General Manager track - If you predefine a GM track, you will immediately get: People opting in for status, authority before competence
