In this episode of The Summit Podcast, host Bob Turner sits down with Larry White, owner of Restorations Unlimited, for a raw conversation about leadership, family dynamics, and what it really takes to grow a construction business without losing what matters most.
Larry shares his journey from working alongside his father in the field to leading a growing family-run construction company in Maine. Together, they unpack the real challenges of leadership, the tension that comes with mixing family and business, and how embracing systems, technology, and intentional communication helped Larry level up as an owner.

Why leadership in a family business is harder than most people admit
How poor communication quietly damages family-run companies
The role technology and SOPs play in sustainable growth
