Hey, Legends! Welcome to the final episode of The Building Talks Podcast Season 3! I’m Martin Preece, and I’m thrilled to close this season with an inspiring conversation featuring George Abraham, Managing Director of Hickory —one of Australia’s most innovative construction companies.
George shares his journey from starting without industry connections to becoming a leader in the construction space. We chat about his approach to fostering innovation, building a strong company culture, and staying adaptable in a constantly evolving industry. He also offers practical advice on career growth, managing feedback, and creating a workplace that supports open communication and big ideas.
Key takeaways from this episode:
- A strong company culture doesn’t happen overnight—it takes time and leadership.
- Building relationships and communication are at the heart of success.
- Patience, self-improvement, and clear goals are key to advancing your career.
- Innovation isn’t just about products—it’s about smarter ways of working.
- The right timing and adaptability can make or break career opportunities.
It’s a perfect way to end the season, packed with practical insights for anyone in the built environment. As we head into the holidays, I want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 🎄🎉
