Succession planning is the most urgent conversation contractors aren't having. Founders are approaching retirement. The next generation is ready — or nearly ready. And most companies are improvising their way through a transition that will define the business for the next thirty years.

This session puts the conversation on the table. Gary Myers and Pansy Romo, two owners from Intech Mechanical, sit down with Eric Anderton, executive coach and host of the Construction Genius Podcast, to talk about how they built and are implementing a real succession plan — defining future leadership roles, identifying internal successors, and designing an ownership transition that lets qualified employees purchase the company over time.

You'll hear how Intech structured their leadership pipeline around the three core functions every contractor lives and dies by: getting the work, doing the work, and counting the work. And you'll hear how they created an ownership model that avoids the complexity, cost, and long-term constraints that sink other transition approaches.

This is a candid conversation — including the hard parts. Difficult conversations between generations. Mistakes made. What worked, what didn't, and what both leaders would do differently if they were starting over.
