This is an image of a blueprint, as a construction manager blueprints will be something used daily and very frequently.

A blueprint is a reproduction of a technical drawing, documenting an architecture or an engineering design, using a contact print process on light-sensitive sheets. Introduced in the 19th century, the process allowed rapid and accurate reproduction of documents used in construction and industry.

I selected this image of four people working together to row a large rowboat. This image symbolizes teamwork which is something very vital in construction managing as you're working together with the workers, architects, and everyone else involved.

Construction managers are often in leadership positions that oversee many people's jobs and their own. As a construction manager, leadership is a necessary skill to have which is why I used this image.

The would-be analyst of leadership usually studies popularity, power, showmanship, or wisdom in long-range planning. But none of these qualities is the essence of leadership. Leadership is the accomplishment of a goal through the direction of human assistants-a human and social achievement that stems from the leader's understanding of his or her fellow workers and the relationship of their individual goals to the group's aim.

To be successful, leaders must learn two basic lessons: People are complex, and people are different. Human beings respond not only to the traditional carrot and stick but also to ambition, patriotism, love of the good and the beautiful, boredom, self-doubt, and many other desires and emotions. One person may find satisfaction in solving intellectual problems but may never be given the opportunity to explore how that satisfaction can be applied to business. Another may need a friendly, admiring relationship and may be constantly frustrated by the failure of his superior to recognize and take advantage of that need.

In this article, first published in HBR's September-October 1961 issue, W.C.H. Prentice argues that by responding to such individual patterns, the leader will be able to create genuinely intrinsic interest in the work. Ideally, Prentice says, managerial dominions should be small enough that every supervisor can know those who report to him or her as human beings.

Prentice calls for democratic leadership that, without creating anarchy, gives employees opportunities to learn and grow. This concept, along with his rejection of the notion that leadership is the exercise of power or the possession of extraordinary analytical skill, foreshadows the work of more recent authors such as Abraham Zaleznik and Daniel Goleman, who have fundamentally changed the way we look at leadership.

Traveling from one job site to another is a norm for construction managers, a very unique part of the as it can have you traveling often from down the road, to across the country. A very big part of the job hence why I picked this photo.

Spelling is typically clear-cut in modern English: forty unfailingly betrays four; the sweet treat after dinner is spelled dessert, not desert.

But some words have two forms that appear often enough in edited text to make it clear that something else is going on. And so it is with forms of the verb travel: traveled and travelled, and traveling and travelling.

One or Two L's?

If you look at where the single l forms originate and where the double l forms originate a pattern emerges: in the United States, traveled and traveling predominate, and everywhere else travelled and travelling are preferred.

The reason mostly comes down to one man we at Merriam-Webster hold especially dear: Noah Webster. Our lexicographical father (brothers George and Charles Merriam bought the rights to Noah Webster's 1841 dictionary after Webster died) was a great believer in spelling reform and wanted English spelling to make more sense-and if the English of his homeland had more logic to it than its British parent, so much the better. He decided that travel needed only one l in its past and present participle forms.

Webster's logic is the reason behind the spelling of canceled and cancelled as well: in the U.S., they have just one l, but elsewhere two l 's are the norm.

American English Words that Use 2 L's

Webster didn't think all double l's needed to be reduced to one, however: in cases in which the accent, or emphasis, is on the syllable with the l, two l's are preserved: expelled and expelling; controlled and controlling; patrolled and patrolling.

Do the other forms of 'travel' have one L or two? It depends on where you are in fact, with 'traveling' and 'traveled' being more common in the U.S., and 'travelling' and 'travelled' being used everywhere else.

As a Construction Manager you will spend lots of time on your feet and outside but, that doesn't take away from the many hours that will have to be put in behind a desk as there's lots of design and technology that goes into the job. Hence the desktop photo.

In order to be a construction manager, you must first acquire a construction management degree. construction Management is a degree that requires a higher level in mathematics than most degree which was my reasoning for this photo. People in this field are excellent at math which is a big part of the job.

# data[].attributes.body
The average salary for a construction manager is roughly $93,000 in the United States, that is well over the average salary for an American currently and is in fact almost double. the career pays well at all levels which led me to this photo.

Being a construction manager is a very time-consuming job with long hours and lots of responsibilities outside of the work site. In order to be a successful construction manager, you have to be willing to put in work off the clock and be prepared for busy summers as that is when most construction jobs take place.
