One of his best-known presentations is "The Nature of Construction Contracts" which, utilizing an anecdotal approach borrowing heavily from direct experiences working on major construction contracts in the public works area, lends insights into how a construction contract goes together. This program will aid individuals who are attempting to make sense out of the apparent maze that large construction contracts oftentimes appear to be.
