Members of the Construction Contractors’ Alliance
heard how to persevere in a recession, be a better business leader and received
some insights into what the economic stimulus means to construction during its March 4-6 meeting in Phoenix.
At roundtable discussions, some members
suggested using “lean” construction, diversifying and restructuring to survive.
A seminar titled ““Developing the Leader
within You” offered more tips on helping companies survive for supervisors.
Economist Jeffery
Collins gave his opinions and what led to the economic downturn and when
contractors can expect it to end.
In other

to the CCA board of trustees.
The CCA is an affiliate of the Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors National Association.
