This week on the podcast we welcome Jamie Verdura of @verduraconstruction, a full-service general contracting company serving the San Mateo County coastal region, specializing in single-family residential and light commercial construction. Listen in as Jamie shares his leadership best practices for running a thriving family construction business. His characteristic high-energy and optimism have been major contributors to his success in the industry. A quick example of this is his ability to maintain an active social media presence while self-performing many of the firm’s tasks—all while managing the business. Jamie talks about the unique challenges of running a full-service construction company in California, particularly in today’s turbulent market. He explains how he chooses which departments to outsource and which to self-perform, as well as how he justifies his fees to clients. Finally, Jamie speaks on his strong family values and how they directly influence his role as a leader. He also shares how his determination to support those around him have led to exciting networking opportunities, including getting the chance to sponsor a local Bellator fighter.
