Hi Mark, good to talk to you again. I work for a large design-build contractor, so basically a GC only we manage more design and early preconstruction compared to bid-spec GC’s.

One thought I had was taking a safety director path as that seems to be more forgiving for stress, and it’s something I care about. Their is the potential though to get buried in paperwork. The idea of working for a sub is one that I go back and forth on. Some sub PM’s are convinced the grass is greener for us, others it seems obvious that they have less on their plate.

I like the idea of developing a skill beyond a typical PM. Since starting I have helped to implement new scheduling methods using our softwares and have become known as someone who will go above the standard practices. Like your son, I think good opportunity may lie with consulting.

Thanks for the help Mark.
