SMEB

Workshops for the construction industry

Two formats on quality, defects and psychological safety. We start with what mistakes cost — not with feelings.

From silent defects to smart quality

Why the expensive mistakes are rarely about someone not knowing the trade.

Duration
2 hours
Audience
Tradespeople, foremen, project managers, managing directors
Focus
Quality, defects, warranty claims, financial risk

In the room

  • Operations before therapy — we look at patterns, not scapegoats.
  • Cases on how time pressure, hierarchy and pride stop people from speaking up early.
  • You pick three realistic stop-and-check routines and test them in your own operation.

Guttastemning 2.0 — having each other's backs

What peer support looks like in practice, without the awkwardness.

Duration
2–2.5 hours
Audience
Tradespeople, foremen, project managers
Focus
Peer support and prevention

In the room

  • Humour and straight talk are good — we add catching the signals.
  • Three levels of support: notice it, say something, make sure nobody stands alone.
  • Ready low-threshold openers, like «Du, alt greit om dagen?».

The bill arrives either way. The question is who gets it.

This the insurer covers

Consequential damage

This you pay yourselves

The defective work

In insurance I was the one on the phone when builders called to ask whether the claim was covered. The answer was usually the same: we cover the consequential damage. The defective work you pay for yourselves.

Stig Magne Brekken

That is why these workshops begin with quality and economics, not with wellbeing.

What actually happens in the room

No role-play for its own sake. We work with cases from your own operation, and you leave with measures you chose yourselves — not a plan somebody else wrote.
