In episode 93 of Ask Brock, host and drill trainer Brock Yordy discusses how to encourage good drilling jobsite decisions, particularly in the complex context of family business.

“I’ve been a son on a drilling company,” he says. “There’s a lot of responsibility to make good decisions like dad would make or grandpa would make.”

Encouraging leadership requires trust.

“We give them the plan and the outline, and then we give them the reigns and let them go out and execute. Then we look at what happened, and we talk about the money that we made on the job or the money that we lost on the job. Then we’re getting somewhere. But we have to have that base.”

He talks about the building on lessons in the field, and the value of good two-way communication. Check out today’s episode to hear more.
