Where Strategy Meets Action
Description
What does strategy really look like inside a construction firm that wants to grow on purpose, not by accident?
In this episode of the PSM Show, host Damion Morris talks with James Hatch, Chief Strategy Officer at Kovac Building Enclosures, one of the top glazing contractors in the country. James shares how his path through architecture, estimating, finance, and business development shaped the way he leads strategy today – and why he sees the CSO as the "agent of change" inside the firm.
They dig into what it takes to keep the "periscope above the water," choose the right pursuits, and build a culture that supports change instead of resisting it. Along the way, James talks candidly about Kovac's shift from private equity to employee ownership, why authenticity matters more than polish, and what emerging leaders should practice now if they are drawn to the work of strategy.
