SUMMARY:STRATEGIES FOR WINNING THE POST-PANDEMIC STRUGGLE
DESCRIPTION:Congratulations! You suffered through the pandemic by reacting in agile and decisive ways to keep your business afloat. As businesses move into the next phase of 2021\, now is the time to seek out and seize the opportunities emerging in the recovery. \nOne of the many things that business leaders are struggling with is hiring and retaining.

One of the most important things you can do as a leader is show your employees how much you value them and what they bring to the table.

We will discuss successful hiring methods\, successful onboarding procedures\, employee retention\, leadership tactics\, and creating your high performance\, emotionally connected team. You cannot afford to miss this workshop! \n  \nThis workshop will be hosted by ABC Eastern PA Member Paramount Business Development

SUMMARY:Effective Delegation Strategies
DESCRIPTION:TARGET AUDIENCE:  Mid-level Managers and up \nHow many times have you done a task yourself because you thought you could get it done quicker and more efficiently than anyone else? Even if you could get it done quicker\, all the time you are spending doing jobs that other people could be doing is time that you are not running your business. Every time you allow yourself to get bogged down in simple details that your employees could be working on\, you are not being an effective leader. The main person in your company who will be truly motivated to grow your company is YOU. Every minute that you spend working on tasks that can be delegated to someone else is a minute that you are not planning\, strategizing\, and building the best business possible. This workshop will discuss effective delegation strategies that you can implement today so you can get back to the most crucial tasks. \n  \nSeminar Hosted by ABC Member Paramount Business Development

SUMMARY:OCIP/CCIP/SDI Seminar
DESCRIPTION:ABC Member Davis Bucco Makara & Dorsey & Construction Risk Partners will be hosting a seminar on Owner Controlled Insurance Program/Contractor Controlled Insurance Program/Subcontractor Default Insurance \nInsurance coverage is as essential as having qualified labor and equipment to perform a construction project.  Sometimes this insurance is offered through Owner Controlled or Contractor Controlled insurance Programs.  These can provide benefits but also anticipated risks for program participants.  This course will discuss the mechanic’s of these programs\, how they are managed\, and what legal risks they do and do not cover.  This course will also examine the growing use of Subcontractor Default Insurance as an alternative to bonding projects.  SDI can provide an important avenue of recovery when enrolled subcontractors default\, while also creating broader opportunities for non-bondable subcontractors to participate in larger projects.

SUMMARY:ACT 75- Understanding Unauthorized Employees

He counsels clients through project management issues and disputes that arise during construction with an eye not only toward protecting his client’s rights and remedies\, but also to formulate and implement a strategy that puts the client in an optimal position to prosecute or defend any post-completion litigation.  Jeff also serves as an arbitrator in construction disputes.  Jeff is a Fellow of the Construction Lawyers Society of America and has been recognized by Pennsylvania Super Lawyers as a top attorney in the area of construction litigation in 2019\, 2020 and 2021.
