Bite Off What You Can Chew: The Project Management Playbook

Contractor associations are in a unique position of being able to draw talent from their membership pool to tackle big projects. And the Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors' National Association, or SMACNA, is no exception.

As an international group with chapters across four countries, SMACNA bids on multiple “mega” projects involving thousands of workers. But even an organization as large as theirs has to be wary of biting off more than it can chew.

SMACNA’s CEO, Aaron Hilger, shares his valuable insights on project management, strategies for growth, and elevating universal opinion of the trades.
