The Archetype Lens

Construction Administration is full of small requests; the People Pleaser grants them, the Owner routes them.

At risk here

Logs and documents instead of intervening — trusts the meeting cadence over the timely call.

Optimizes for the design — treats budget, client ops, and team load as someone else’s problem.

At risk here

Leads with relationship — says yes, softens bad news, absorbs cost to dodge the hard conversation.

Owns the intersections — reads signals early, stops work, presents options, protects the outcome.

The situation

A contractor RFI pushes for an out-of-scope answer.

✗ The People Pleaser move

Says yes to keep things smooth on site.

✓ The Owner move

Answers within scope and routes the rest through the right — priced — channel.
