Food For Thought

photo of child holding a can on a string to his earThe most important skill anyone can have is the ability to listen.

You probably thought that I was going to say something like time management or being able to use Microsoft Office.

The immediate access to information, at our fingertips and the anonymity of the internet, has proven to be a valuable tool in the growth of our society but has had some undesired consequences in the area of social interactions.

Understanding how to get across your wants/needs is essential to every job; no matter if you are a skilled laborer or a CEO. Someone in the construction industry or someone in the mortuary sciences. At Bowman Constructors, we pride ourselves in our ability to listen to our owners. It is one of the assets that sets us apart from our competition.

Taking the time to focus on understanding another person’s views will not only allow for a broader conversation on a topic but will also grow your knowledge base and open you up to new ideas and ways of thinking.

It isn’t as easy as it sounds. Personally, this is a pain point for me as I tend to want to get my ideas out before I forget them or the opportunity disappears. What I find, however, is that listening does not mute my own ideas but gives them more strength.

Try it out!

April Fools

Best known for Bowman Constructors and Bowman Mini Storage, the Bowman brothers are now branching out to become the BowMen. Their new company will feature custom archery equipment for recreational and sport use.

“It has been something that we’ve been wanting to do for a while now,” stated Brian Bowman. “Many of our staff are hunters and this just felt like the right move. We already had the equipment to craft these. It was just a matter of making the decision to go for it.”

The company will begin production of the bows in the early spring with a date for shipping slated for mid-summer.

“We really hope that people enjoy what we are doing and that they understand the concept behind this sharp turn from what we are known for,” explained Kevin Bowman. “We also hope that those reading this press release have a fantastic April 1st and have enjoyed our little bit of humor.”

It truly is a shame that these aren’t a reality as they would definitely get some use.
