The Daily Dose #180 | How Influence Shapes Every Great Builder: Dan Urquhart on Leadership, Culture & Core Purpose
Description
In today’s episode, Az sits down with one of the most influential minds in the building industry, Dan Urquhart from Thousand Feet Deep. This is more than a leadership chat; it’s a blueprint for how builders can create stronger teams, better cultures, and more resilient businesses.
Together they unpack the Drivers of Effective Influence, mindset, leadership styles, and the traits that separate average operators from the ones who build legacy. Dan breaks down the six leadership styles, why most leaders unintentionally shrink their influence, and how to shift into a mode where your team wants to follow you, not because they have to, but because you’ve earned permission.
Az also shares his own personal reflections after completing the first module of Dan’s Hand, Head & Heart program, including hard-hitting lessons about worker mindset, delegation, emotional leadership, and the brutal reality of why some builders burn out their teams without ever meaning to.
If you’re a builder, tradie, supervisor or business owner who wants to improve your leadership, build a stronger team, and actually enjoy running your business — this episode is a must-listen.
