In Episode 4 of The CM Mentors Podcast, Matt Graves and Kyle Grandell chat with Marty Schmitt, President of AG|CM Inc. The general topic is “Taking Control of your Career Growth and Creating Your Own Opportunities.” But the episode was recorded the Monday after the Super Bowl and so with Marty being from Philadelphia, there was a fair bit of football talk as well.
This was an interesting episode to record and more interesting to edit. A thunderstorm was rolling through and kept knocking out Marty’s wifi and power. I was afraid the First Live Episode we did was going to be a train wreck, but we made it all the way to Episode 4 before that happened!
I hope you take value from the wisdom and insights Marty provides as he has grown his career to the President role, or if nothing else I hope you are entertained as we fumble with the recording technology.
The CM Mentors Podcast's vision is to be an informative, entertaining, and interactive experience for construction managers by construction project managers.
