There are 16 local home builder associations across the state and more than 600 local associations across the country. With nearly 5,000 members, the Home Builders Association of Michigan is the largest construction-related association in our state. Most of the HBA of Michigan’s work has to do with advocating for our industry ― in the legislature, in the courts, within the halls of state government ― but your state association also advocates for individual members when they need help. Many HBA members don’t always realize that they can reach out to their state association in the event that they have a permitting, legal, regulatory, utility connection or some other issue they’re dealing with.

Before Crimson Oak Wood Co. was a thriving custom furnishings business with two Michigan locations and a dedicated team of builders, it was just a man in his garage with a baby monitor in one pocket and a sander in the other.

Jason Norris didn’t set out to become a woodworker. Armed with a master’s degree in architecture, he was deep into a stable career, working for a respected architecture firm throughout Ann Arbor, Grand Rapids, and Lansing. But the rhythm of a desk job never fit him quite right. “I didn’t really enjoy sitting behind a desk having someone look over my shoulder,” he recalled.

Regardless of the industry that you — as a business leader — specialize in, patience is vital. It is especially important when you’re training your company’s next generation of employees. Whether your new worker is an apprentice, an intern, or a well-versed professional with vast experience in other fields, you must focus on teaching them exactly what you need them to do and how you’d like them to do it.

For Aaron Baker of Baker Builders Inc., a good hire isn’t someone with a lengthy residential construction résumé. It’s someone who seems to be a good human, even if they don’t yet have technical skills.

Trust and communication are as powerful as hammers and circular saws when it comes to building a great team, Baker believes.
