The Executive Workshop will include 15-20 CEOs, Presidents, or Key Decision Makers from leading builders together for two days of education, collaboration and insight into the future of home construction. Led by Sam Rashkin, author of Retooling the U.S. Housing Industry, you will learn how to innovate your company to build better, much more consumer-centric products. Sponsored by some of the U.S.’s most innovative manufacturers, you’ll also learn about some of the latest products on the market that can transform your product and process through cutting edge technology. Your investment is $250 and transportation to and from the venue. All meals during the workshop and housing costs are included. Planning for the visible future is all about identifying certainty. That begins with these extraordinary two days.

Comments from Austin Attendees

“The most valuable takeaway was learning more technical specifics – seeing the overall picture of where homebuilding will be/should be going.” - Amy Aukema, Thrive Homebuilders

“The Good Design module, aesthetics and architecture are the first thing people see, and if they play into the energy efficiency of the home (day lighting, shading, etc) it’s easier to make the connection. The community design piece was also new and informative.” – Chris Rosemond, BASF

“I must do a vastly better job integrating all the features in a system of measure with feedback loop.” - Steve Saunders, Tempo, Inc.

“I enjoyed the modules on Quality and Sales. Ideas that I have not considered as important or understood how small changes could make such a big difference.” - Wayne Atkins, Sterling Brook Custom Homes

“Great breakdown of the processes needed to build a home that is truly ‘High Performance’. “ - Mark Curry, Top Build Home Services

“I have a lot to learn in this business, and I must continue to innovate to keep our company relevant.” – Anthony Natale, Grenadier Homes

“The best part of the workshop was seeing what is likely to happen in the industry in the short term/long term.” - Ron Bumpass, DR Horton

“You don’t know what you don’t know. This has been such a valuable, educational session for mea as a consumer as well as a new player in residential markets. I really enjoyed the overall flow, integrating sponsors between Sam’s modules.” - Maryna Tov, Insulsteel/Amerisips

“The more I attend, the more I learn, even after attending 4 times, I keep learning. I feel Sam’s passion is like a revolution to excel and provide humans the best living environment available and it is up to all of us that attend to achieve. Thus I am glad I am part of this revolution!” - Nick Agopian, RenewAire LLC
