Back in 2011, a venture capitalist named Marc Andreessen wrote an essay for The Wall Street Journal with a rather dramatic title: “Why Software Is Eating the World.” It wasn’t a horror movie pitch. It was a prophecy. And like all good prophecies, it was both bold and, as it…

Your Expertise Might Be Killing Your Career

🔥 Your expertise might be holding you back. If you’re leading with your past successes instead of future vision, you might be getting left behind. Learn how to shift from experience-based authority to thought leadership that shapes what’s next. #CareerGrowth #FutureOfWork #ThoughtLeadership

Your expertise is outdated. No one cares about your resume anymore. The future belongs to those who predict it, not those who reminisce about it. It’s an uncomfortable truth: the more you rely on your past accomplishments, the more people assume you’re stuck there. Hiring managers, clients, and industry peers aren’t just looking for experience; they’re looking for vision. And if all you have to…

Will Katerra disrupt the construction industry? Perhaps, but we've seen this movie before

They are doing wonderful things about creating supply, but construction demand is notoriously cyclical in North America.

Katerra has avoided many of the pitfalls that have bedevilled previous attempts at large scale prefabrication. It is keeping away from single family housing, and one of its founding partners is the Wolff Co, which is big in the seniors' housing market. According to Senior Housing News,

Going forward, all of Wolff’s senior housing projects—including its upscale Revel-branded independent living communities—are expected to be built using an offsite fabrication method that saves both time and money, Craig Curtis, head of the architecture and interior design group at Katerra, told Senior Housing News. Menlo Park, California-based Katerra was co-founded by Fritz Wolff, the executive chairman of The Wolff Co. Scottsdale, Arizona-based Wolff is currently Katerra’s biggest customer, as it has spent more than $500 million with Katerra.

Goodness knows, there are a lot of aging baby boomers and a lot of people who will be needing seniors' housing, if they have any savings and can afford it. Katerra is also not reinventing the wheel, but using panellized systems like they do in Europe (and in a few American factories like Bensonwood/ Unity Homes), and importing European technology.

“We’re not building pods and shipping then down the road on flatbed trucks, fully assembled,” he [Curtis] explained. Instead, Katerra is assembling wall panels—fully complete with windows, electrical wiring, plumbing and more—and stacking them “very efficiently” onto a truck, which then transports them to the final building site.

But as I noted in an earlier post, things are different in Europe.

Unlike Europe where government-supported social housing keeps the factories running, Americans have Ben Carson running HUD. Unlike Europe where they have high standards of energy efficiency, the U.S. is killing Energy Star and promoting cheap gas. Unlike Europe where multiple family housing is almost universal, in the hot markets like Seattle and San Francisco, it takes years to get approval for anything, thanks to NIMBY protests. Conditions are very different, but we can always hope.
