Dashboard: Something Is Going to Happen
This week, Mel Gravely, CEO of Triversity Construction in Cincinnati, joins Dashboard to explain why\u2014even though he has an extremely healthy backlog of work lined up for 2023\u2014he\u2019s more than a little concerned about where the economy is headed. He also talks about how the labor shortage in his industry started well before The Great Resignation and why he doesn\u2019t see it ending any time soon. And then there\u2019s the challenge of bidding for future contracts without knowing what your materials or labor are likely to cost. Plus: He talks about what he\u2019s learned in the year since he published his book, \u201cDear White Friend,\u201d in which he sought to start an honest conversation with other business owners about race.
