Spotlight: Andrew Culpepper

It was a hot July Monday in 2016 when Andrew Culpepper arrived at the Grayson office as a Project Manager. At the time we were involved in some residential work in Gwinnett County, and Andrew came in mid-project. It’s not every day that you get to work with someone like Andrew Culpepper. You can always count on Andrew to take on any task with enthusiasm and vigor. He’s a solid team player and has a resilience matched only by his loyalty and commitment. Andrew is the type of person who works incredibly hard, puts his whole self into whatever he [...]

Fundamental Number 9 – Listen Generously:

Think of the last time you tried to have a serious conversation with someone who was looking at their phone or computer. How did that make you feel? We are not fully present in a conversation in which our mind is wandering or we’re reading our emails. If you are truly present in a conversation, you are not doing anything else. You are focused on the other person and you are listening with your whole body. #listengenerously #murrenway

Spotlight: Dave Davis

“Number 1—act with integrity. That would be my favorite fundamental. I also like lead by example, but to lead by example you have to have integrity. You have to lead with integrity.” These are great words, spoken by none other than our Dave Davis, Superintendent, who is celebrating 10 years with the team this month. We can attest that Dave lives these words. “He’s a very honest man,” a teammate said simply. Dave is honest, kind, and a great teacher. He’s always willing to work with his crew, truly leading them by example, as he shows them how to do [...]

Honor Commitments

Every commitment you make is a moment of truth. An opportunity to create positive impression about your leadership and character.

Spotlight: Dalton Pierce

“Having worked with Dalton for the past several months I have come to know him as a go-getter. He is never one to just wait around for something to do. He takes the initiative and finds things to do.” That’s the general consensus on Dalton Pierce, a young man who has made quite an impression on the C.A. Murren team since joining us two years ago. Dalton grew up in Kentucky, but by the third grade he was getting to travel with his dad to the various jobsites he worked on (James Pierce is also on the team as a [...]

Spotlight: Chester Mosely

If you have ever found yourself on the jobsite with Chester, you’ve probably gotten the Chester Mosely experience. You’re going to know when Chester is there. He’s energetic, positive, outgoing and hardworking. “He brings a great attitude to the team, makes everybody laugh,” says a teammate. Chester grew up in Alabama, and he’s been doing construction all his life. He came from a pretty large family – 13 kids—and he himself has three children. Two boys and a girl. His youngest son is 9 months old (we hope to recruit him in about 17 years). He’s a happy husband to [...]

Spotlight: Babar Laghari

Babar Laghari has had a very interesting and successful life so far. He was born in Dadu—a very small town in Pakistan—and raised in Karachi, Pakistan, one of the largest cities in the country. Karachi is where Babar did his initial schooling, along the way mastering not just his first language, Siraeki, but three others as well—English, Sindhi, and Urdu. By 2013 he was headed to the United States (Atlanta, to be exact) to pursue his master’s in building construction at Georgia Tech. Babar and Sana celebrated their marriage in August of 2017, and in 2019 he saw more success [...]
