Show Notes

Welcome to the Fix & Fly Podcast hosted by Larissa Logan from ⁠Fixity⁠.

Our guest is Jim Marsh, Director at High Performer Building.

Jim believes the biggest challenge facing New Zealand's construction industry isn't rising costs or a slowing market—it's our resistance to change.

In this episode, Jim shares why the industry needs to move beyond traditional thinking and start focusing on long-term performance, quality and value. From embracing new technology and smarter systems to improving collaboration across the sector, he explains why building better homes starts with changing the way we think.

Whether you're a builder, developer, business owner or homeowner, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on where New Zealand construction is heading and what it will take to lead the industry into the future.
