For my EDGE project I will be designing and executing a landscaping project. This project will be used as an obstacle training course for a local lawn mowing business. I will be taking the lead and acting as a foreman for the project. I will be working alongside the owners on the running budget and bouncing off ideas for their course. The owners have a long list of different things that their employees face on a daily basis and so those obstacles will be first on the list to incorporate. My goal through all of this is to become a better leader and to be able to manage most aspects of the project.
In my minor of construction technology I will be more qualified for management positions in the construction industry. This project will help me to stand out to potential employers because I will have already been in a foreman position on a large project. This project will give me the experience of taking charge and making the day to day decisions that I am faced with.
