The Blueprint for Absolute Teamwork
"Building a project is easy. Building a team that builds the project is the real challenge." — Lonnie Morelock

In his Amazon best-seller, What Makes Your Team Tick?, Lonnie Morelock distills four decades of heavy civil construction experience into a strategic framework for the modern executive. This isn’t a book about operating machinery—it’s a guide to operating a high-performance organization.
Lonnie’s "Continuous Improvement" approach helps large-scale firms identify the psychological and operational "ticks" that separate a struggling team from a profitable one. By focusing on Absolute Teamwork, Lonnie provides management with the tools to:
  • Identify and Promote Internal Talent: Stop looking for leaders outside your firm and start developing the high-potential supervisors already on your payroll.
  • Bridge the Communication Gap: Learn how to align the goals of the senior managers with the reality of the field supervisors to eliminate friction and maximize potential.
  • Drive Superior Performance: Implement field-tested leadership tactics that improve retention and overall leadership development, safety, and project margins.
Whether you are a company executive, a project manager, or a field supervisor, this book serves as the foundational "Human Blueprint" for taking your team to the next level of superior performance.

JENNIFER GEMIGNANI – PRESIDENT – WEST COAST WATER & AMP; TRUCKING INC.

As small business owners, my husband and I spent years dealing with the
same frustrations...always feeling behind and never in control. Searching
for a solution, an industry colleague referred us to Lonnie. His program
turned out to be the change we had been searching for! Working with
Lonnie we learned how to build and implement direct processes and
procedures, efficiently delegate work, create clear expectations for our
team, and manage our business in a way we never had before. Thanks to
his program we have now found the time to launch our second business.
Not only do I recommend Lonnie for his skill and expertise, but the way that
he tailors his program to his client. He goes above and beyond to ensure
his clients success!

MANUEL de FREITAS – CEO / PRESIDENT – PLATINUM PIPELINE INC.

Lonnie Morelock has had a meaningful impact on our leadership team at Platinum Pipeline. He understands the construction industry and connects with field leaders in a way that very few outside advisors can. Several members of our team who worked closely with Lonnie have grown significantly in their careers. One of our Foremen who participated in Lonnie's leadership development has since been promoted multiple times and now serves as our General Superintendent. A Project Engineer who went through Lonnie’s program has advanced to Project Manager and is now mentoring other Project Engineers using many of the
same leadership principles Lonnie taught him. Our Director of Business Development has also stepped into a larger leadership role and now serves as our Vice President of Operations.
What stands out most is that Lonnie’s influence didn’t stop with the individuals he coached. The lessons, techniques, and leadership mindset he introduced are now being passed down throughout our organization as those leaders continue developing the next generation of our team. Investing in our people has always been one of our top priorities, and working with Lonnie has been a valuable part of building a stronger leadership culture within our company.
