Talking Leadership with Builder Magazine

Read the full interview with Builder Magazine.

We’re excited to share that Erica Lockwood, Executive Partner and Managing Director here at Joseph Chris Partners, was recently featured in Builder Magazine talking about what strong leadership really looks like in today’s homebuilding world. With more than 25 years of experience recruiting top talent in this industry, Erica offered her take on why emotional intelligence, communication, and people-first leadership matter now more than ever. She also pointed out something many builders are feeling: while the market is full of opportunity, there’s still a shortage of leaders who are ready to step in and take on bigger roles, especially as the industry continues to change.

Erica also shared why supporting and developing people is at the heart of great leadership, and how the best companies are creating space for their teams to grow. Her perspective really reflects who we are at Joseph Chris Partners, a team focused on helping homebuilding companies find leaders who bring out the best in others. We’re incredibly proud to see Erica’s insights recognized, and we hope her interview sparks new conversations about what leadership can look like moving forward.
