Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The importance of coaching with Glee Coaching
Q: What best practices should someone look for if they want to coach effectively or assess their boss's coaching approach?
Best practices involve connecting individuals to the bigger purpose, defining goals, avoiding jargon, and ensuring sessions consistently anchor back to the person's purpose and organizational values.
The importance of coaching with Glee Coaching
Q: What are the key skills particularly for those in leadership positions in Retrofit?
Key skills include authenticity, situational leadership, curiosity about the team, clear communication, and the ability to manage ambiguity while aligning with retrofit goals and values.
The importance of coaching with Glee Coaching
Q: Could you start by telling us a little bit about your background in this space?
Barbra describes Glee Coaching as a four-year-old business focusing on leadership development for housing, construction, and engineering sectors, emphasizing coaching as a learning tool rather than mentoring or therapy.
U-value measurement with Build Test Solutions and Energy house Labs
Q: What is the practical workflow to fit U-value measurement into typical retrofit surveys?
Two main approaches exist: heat-flux plate measurements for precise, location-based heat transfer and infrared thermography for broader area assessments. Both can be integrated into typical survey visits by using standardized procedures, extended measurement durations to account for thermal mass, and aligning with other surveys like airtightness testing to avoid extra site visits.
U-value measurement with Build Test Solutions and Energy house Labs
Q: Could you give a brief overview of the difference between in-situ and desktop U-value measurements?
In-situ measurements capture how a building actually performs under real conditions, including convection and thermal mass effects, and they often reveal a wider range of performance than lab-based calculations. Desktop methods rely on assumed materials and flat conditions, which can misrepresent real performance; in-situ approaches use tools like heat-flux plates or infrared methods to derive the U-value with real environmental influences.
