2-Hour House: Leadership From the Ground Up
by Brian Conaway and Jose Feliciano
$19.95
On October 1, 2005, in Tyler, Texas, 579 volunteers set out to achieve the seemingly impossible: build a complete, livable 2,249-square-foot home from slab to shingles in under three hours. Against all odds, they did it in just 2 hours and 52 minutes.
The 2-Hour House isn’t just the story of a world record. It’s a blueprint for possibility. Through setbacks, failed practice runs, hurricanes that stole their equipment, and skeptics at every turn, ordinary men and women proved what can happen when vision, belief, preparation, and persistence come together.
Inside these pages, you’ll discover:
- Leadership lessons on rallying people around a bold vision.
- Time-management strategies that compress months into minutes.
- Business insights on teamwork, innovation, and systems thinking.
- Personal inspiration to dream bigger, push through failure, and never give up.
This 20th Anniversary Edition blends firsthand accounts, behind-the-scenes details, and timeless leadership principles to show how the “impossible” becomes possible. Whether you’re a builder, business leader, entrepreneur, or dreamer, The 2-Hour House will challenge how you think about goals, planning, and what can truly be achieved.
