In this epsiode: Angela and Christi welcome Lydia Miller, fourth-generation owner of her family construction business and its first female leader, who shares her path from University of Pennsylvania lacrosse and Navy ROTC to serving on warships and in Pentagon intelligence, earning a Wharton executive MBA, joining the family firm, and taking full ownership two years ago. Lydia explains transforming a decades-old business into a scalable, process-driven organization through correct sequencing and a “people ladder” that builds from admin and financial foundations to delivery, marketing, sales, and leadership with leaders at each rung. She recounts leading as one of eight women on a 400-person ship, emphasizing bold curiosity, learning in the field, mission focus, and how sports build command presence. She describes Miller Tech’s aggressive AI use to gain speed while avoiding private-data risks, and outlines the stage-gated “Miller methodology” across pre-construction, construction, and launch to deliver consistent, surprise-free client experiences.
