In this powerful episode of The Good Builder Podcast, Az sits down once again with leadership coach Dan Urquhart from A Thousand Feet Deep — and this one cuts deep.
They unpack one of the toughest challenges in business: dealing with high performers who destroy culture. From toxic personalities to unhealthy behaviours, Az and Dan explore where leaders go wrong, how to set clear expectations, and why accountability and culture always start at the top.
Dan shares his framework for capacity-driven leadership — setting expectations, empowering outcomes, measuring results, and holding people accountable — and explains how mission, vision, and core values can turn chaos into cohesion.
If you’ve ever kept the wrong person on your team because they got results, this episode will hit home.
Key takeaways:
This one’s for every builder, business owner, and leader who wants to grow their team, protect their culture, and lead with purpose.
