👋 Welcome to Working Hands to Leading Hands I’m glad you’re here. This community was created for construction workers and tradespeople who take pride in their work but know they’re capable of more than just getting through the day. If you’re here, you might be: - Thinking about moving into leadership - Wanting better pay or stability - Feeling stuck but unsure what the next step is - Or just looking to learn from others who understand the work This isn’t about pretending the job is easy or chasing shortcuts. It’s about growth, respect for the craft, and building a better future one step at a time. 👉 Introduce yourself below Tell us: • What trade you’re in • How long you’ve been doing it • What you want to improve or learn next I’ll start first. I’ve been an electrician for 20 years and recently earned a certificate in construction management. I’m now working toward a degree and focusing on making the move into a construction management role. Everyone starts somewhere. Let’s build this together.

Please share one of the craziest excuses someone has ever given to call in sick at one of your job sites?

I started this community because I’ve seen how many skilled workers are expected to figure out growth and leadership on their own. Going from working hands to leading hands isn’t always clear, and it shouldn’t be something you have to do alone. This space is for learning, asking questions, and supporting each other. What’s one thing you wish someone had explained to you earlier in your career?
