“It’s just not fun anymore.”

If you’ve ever heard this —or thought it yourself—you’re not alone. From project managers to tradespeople, and in job sites, offices, and design studios across our country many of us in the construction industry are asking the same thing: Why isn’t this fun anymore?

This is the question at the heart of Making Construction Fun Again: Structural Support for Those Building Our World.

With years of experience as a construction project manager and now a consultant who supports our boots on the ground field folks to industry executives, Amy Powell brings firsthand insight into the real challenges that shape our daily work. Drawing from her own journey and the voices of respected peers across the country, she explores this question through tough stories, historical context, a field-tested framework, and a refreshing dose of humor.

By focusing on the core of construction —the human element—she shows how we can bring back pride, teamwork, and camaraderie without sugarcoating the tough stuff. Whether you’re a seasoned superintendent, new intern, or in a design, management, or support role, you’ll discover how personal growth, genuine connection, and an intentional mindset can bring back the fun and fulfillment that a career in construction was always meant to offer.
