Drawing from his experience with lean principles and examples from Japanese construction practices, Jason explains why offices often disconnect leadership from the field, hinder flow, and create bureaucracy. What you'll learn in this episode:  Why beautiful corporate offices can be anti-lean. How to restructure office space to support field operations. Using visual management, Kanban boards, and situational rooms for flow. The importance of proximity and hands-on leadership in construction. How offices can enable logistics, training, and standardization instead of creating barriers.  Are your offices truly supporting your project teams or just getting in the way of flow and lean operations? &amp;nbsp; If you like the Elevate Construction podcast, please subscribe for free and you'll never miss an episode.
