Manage the project and you stay ahead of the problems. Chase it and you stay out of breath.
A nine-week field curriculum for construction project managers, built from fifteen-minute morning huddles run with a working team. Owning the budget instead of reporting it, knowing the contract better than the owner does, and closing the doors change orders come through.

J. Micah Covey has spent thirty-nine years in construction — bridges, cast-in-place high-rise structures, heavy civil, water and wastewater treatment, and sixteen years running his own general contracting business in the Pacific Northwest and North Idaho.
He writes fiction about systems: divine ones, economic ones, and the kind that decide how a life gets spent. The technical texture in the work is not researched. It is remembered.
He lives in Nevada, where he oversees a public works portfolio and writes in focused sessions to instrumental music.
