The construction industry is once again faced with a familiar challenge – how do you attract and retain a skilled workforce (a vexing issue we first addressed in articles and speeches over 20 years ago!)? With experienced and skilled workers retiring and not enough new workers to replace them, how can you maintain and improve your productivity? How do you produce more with less?

Continuing with the series on improving productivity, tune in to Dennis this week as he outlines how technology (and the training necessary to maximize its utility) can bridge the productivity gap. We’d love to hear the ways you’re embracing technology; please share your thoughts with us in the comments below.
