Explore construction leadership, operations, technology adoption, and AI’s role in improving company culture and productivity in the built environment.Because construction leaders spend a lot of time talking about budgets, schedules, productivity, and technology.But what if those aren't the real challenge?In this episode of Activating Curiosity™, Ryan Ware sits down with Casey Bell, CEO of Aecore and Co-Founder of Buildzen, to explore a different perspective:What if the biggest challenge in construction is the construction experience itself?Drawing from his experience building both a commercial general contracting company and a construction software platform, Casey shares how better systems, thoughtful leadership, and practical technology can remove friction—not just from projects, but from the everyday experience of the people delivering them.Together, they explore what it takes to build stronger operations, improve technology adoption and change management, create healthier company cultures, and leverage AI in ways that support people instead of overwhelming them.This episode challenges construction leaders to think beyond budgets, schedules, and software. Because when the experience improves for project teams, subcontractors, clients, and owners, better project outcomes naturally follow.🎙️ Production Note: This episode was recorded with unexpected technical difficulties, so you may notice reduced audio quality throughout.
