“It really was amazing. I have never been to one of our seminars/trainings where a group was so engaged with Mark. He truly commands a room. They were never bored. They ALL came away with something. I’m hearing feed back about the guys talking about it on the job sites. That is the true sign of a successful training/seminar! Someone that truly gets them thinking, and talking! I am so impressed, and happy that we did have Mark come in.” – S.A. Comunale Co., Inc.

Your speech changed the trajectory of my career and life.” – UBC Apprentice
“The buzz this week was so positive and uplifting with regards to his training. Most of the team members had worked a 12 day and to come back to the training center for another 4 hours of classroom times was a lot. I witnessed a whole classroom of engaged, focused and inspired men and women while listening to Mark speak. We look forward to more trainings in the future.” – Anvil Builders

I want to thank you for today’s session. I met you as a union apprentice operator in MI about 17 years ago. It was the Survival of the Fittest seminar. That helped shape my career, and now I am able to utilize your seminars within the ranks of my company. We will be rolling out more of your resources to as many as we can. Thanks again!
Mark’s presentation was fantastic and aligns very well with what we are working toward. I most impressed by the response from the audience (hardened PROFESSIONAL construction workers) with their level of engagement with Mark. They seemed to take it very well and that was the critical factor for me. Very well done and worth the time.
We just watched a couple of videos and they are awesome! What a great program, so simple yet packed with information!
These short videos along with the Five Minute Foreman book have been a great help to CSCRCs foreman meetings. The foremen are no longer just foremen. Mark’s coaching videos helped them understand that they actually manage millions of dollars for their companies when building a project, and now they think of themselves as Professional Construction Leaders. I’m looking forward to utilizing more of the videos and books at the meetings. Education and empowerment is the key to success.
I think the Professional Construction Leadership training is excellent. Just long enough and focused on a simple and very important concept.
Mark Breslin’s The Professional Construction Leader Video Series works! It works, because Mark is real. His blatantly honest family history and experience have wrapped him into who he is today. No bias, no bullshit. He speaks with clarity, sincerity, and conviction. The messages are simple, clear and strong. To do this in two minute messages is perfect for our very busy people. Thanks Mark!
The Professional Construction Leader coaching videos have been instrumental to the success of our Foreman meetings. We watch videos and then use the provided discussion questions. We talk about real experiences on the job site that were related to a video. One example is one of our members drove up to the job site, told us he really did look in his rear-view mirror and said, “I run millions of dollars’ worth of work, I am a professional.” He was recently promoted to Assistant Superintendent.
I have been in the trade for 25 years and have always thought that my way was the right way because I always got the job done on time and not taking anyone else’s thoughts or feelings into consideration because they weren’t the ones signing my pay check. Let me say this right now. I was so Wrong! There are better ways to do things and the field leader training helped me professionally and personally in ways I can’t express with words. I believe that it has made me all around a better person and oh by the way, I will always see myself as a leader for the rest of my life. Thanks again for seeing in me what I didn’t see in myself.
I had a number of individuals reach out to me after the event to express how much the day changed their view on leadership and energized them to take greater responsibility for leading at home and work. You did a wonderful job and made a significant impact on the lives of leaders at Mid-Ohio. Thank you!
