Peggy Smedley and Donna Laquidara-Carr, industry insights research director, Dodge Construction Network, talk about the soft skills needed to attract more workers to the construction industry. She says they did a survey about the cost of poor collaboration.
They also discuss:
- How many interactions contractors have daily with people from other companies—and how many involve some sort of conflict.
- How many found positive team dynamics on their regular projects.
- Which is more important: communication or technical skills.
