Most construction firms talk about growth. Few talk honestly about what it costs to scale without losing what made you worth scaling in the first place. In the latest episode of FMI's Built-In Podcast, FMI Consulting President Scott Winstead sits down with Anthony Bond, President and CEO of BOND Brothers, Inc., a fifth-generation family business that has grown from its Boston-area roots into one of the Northeast's leading construction and utility infrastructure firms over more than 120 years. Tony shares how BOND has navigated significant growth while staying true to the culture and values that define the company, and what disciplined strategy actually looks like when you're playing a long game. 🎧 Listen at https://bit.ly/4a9WEVh or wherever you get your podcasts. #Construction #Leadership #BuiltInPodcast #FamilyBusiness

Growth is easy to celebrate. What it costs to get there is a different conversation. I joined Scott Winstead on FMI's Built In Podcast to talk through exactly that. How BOND Brothers, Inc. has grown, what it's taken to preserve the culture built over 120 years, and why focus and intentionality are part of the main reason we've survived long enough to have this conversation. If you're leading a firm at any stage of growth, I think there's something in here worth your time. Listen here: https://lnkd.in/eaaC4FWq

To say this episode with Steven McKay AIA, RIBA, LEED AP of DLR Group was "wide ranging" or "informative" is like describing the Pyramids as "pretty historical." This conversation had everything - from the importance of Design (with a capital "D") to the power of employee ownership and what AI means for the #AE industry. (And what it was like to play rugby in the freezing cold in Scotland.) While I took away a LOT from our time together, I was most inspired by these thoughts from Steven McKay AIA, RIBA, LEED AP “This young generation of professionals - they see a purpose and vision. I think this new generation are brilliant. They’re quicker, faster, better than I ever was. It’s finding a way to synthesize (those characteristics) into a business at the same time as providing them a career and a quality of life – and that’s the whole point of the ESOP”

For founders aiming for significant growth, a crucial question often goes unasked: What do you truly want from your business? Many aspire to an eventual exit, a financial liquidity event. If that's your goal, clarity is key. Once your desired outcome is defined, it's time to assess your runway. How much time and energy can you commit to achieving that exit? Then, focus on the 'what' of your exit: what valuation are you aiming for? Engage experts to determine your current position and map the path to bridge the gap. Every effort should be directed towards a well-defined, grounded objective. Search 'notes from the executive podcast' for the full episode.

Many associations want innovation, but far fewer are comfortable with the risks that come with it.  On this week’s episode of the Association Adviser Podcast, Christine Shaw talks with Sheri Jacobs, FASAE, CAE, AAiP, CEO of Avenue M Group, LLC, about how associations can create healthier approaches to experimentation and growth.  They discuss the difference between risk tolerance and risk capacity, how to create guardrails for new ideas, and why innovation depends on teams feeling safe enough to test and learn.  🎧 Listen now: https://lnkd.in/e_E-XQtz #AssociationAdviserPodcast #Leadership #AssociationManagement
