Send us Fan Mail In this episode: Angela Gardner and guest co-host Libby Mendriatta welcome Cheryl Cappelli and owner Rob Turner of Turner Brothers Construction to discuss leadership, culture, growth, and business development. Cheryl shares her nearly 30-year career path from receptionist to leading the Turner Brothers Greenville office by embracing challenges, asking questions, learning estimating and project management, and stepping outside her comfort zone through roles in business development and marketing. Rob explains how the company’s people-first “upside down pyramid” approach, core values (family, integrity, authenticity, heart), and mission statement (“remarkable people delivering superior results one yard at a time”) support a meritocracy across five locations, following a consistent “Chick-fil-A” quality standard. They discuss work-life prioritization, building client trust through relationships and performance, mentoring through industry involvement, investing in emerging talent, and connecting on LinkedIn.
