NER CSI President Frank Mruk will hold a conversation with former Buffalo Bills icon Mark Kelso. As a four-time Super Bowl safety and a veteran color analyst for the Bills, Kelso brings a rare perspective on what it takes to maintain elite performance under pressure. Mruk and Kelso will explore the compelling parallels between the gridiron and the construction site, diving deep into:

• The Anatomy of High-Performance Systems: How to define, design and execute high-functioning teams
• Leading Through Pressure: Practical strategies for navigating adversity in high-stakes professional environments
• Building Resilience Across Disciplines: Translating the mental fortitude of professional sports into long-term project success and resiliency

Whether working in architecture, engineering or construction, this session offers attendees fresh perspectives on what high performance teamwork truly entails.
