Über diesen Titel

 Dave Layton, CEO of Layton Construction, has built something remarkable: a company where more than half the employees own shares and retire, having changed their family tree. From the youngest of 10 children working in his father's vegetable garden to leading one of America's top 25 construction companies, Dave's story reveals how treating employees like owners transforms everything.

In this conversation, Dave shares the "Layton Way"—a philosophy that's driven explosive growth from $350 million in 2004 to over $1 billion today, with offices across 11 markets. The real magic isn't in the revenue numbers; it's in how they've created a culture where top talent stays for decades, building wealth while building America's most important projects from hospitals to sports venues.What You'll Learn:
  • The employee ownership model that turns construction workers into millionaires over 20-40 year careers
  • Why growth is essential for retention and how Dave uses expansion to create career paths for emerging talent
  • The "team sport" approach to construction that delivers predictable outcomes in an unpredictable industry
  • How AI and predictive analytics are revolutionizing safety and project management in traditional construction
  • Dave's crisis leadership lessons from surviving the 2008 recession with a 30-40% revenue drop
  • The mentorship philosophy passed down from his 92-year-old father who "never stopped teaching"
  • Why the rock never rolls on its own and what it takes to keep pushing when business gets tough
  • Technology strategies that help companies do more with less skilled labor in today's market
Whether you're building a family business, scaling a company, or wondering how to create lasting employee loyalty, Dave's insights on leadership, growth, and giving back offer a blueprint for building something that lasts generations.Connect with Layton Construction:
