Poor leadership usually leads to poor results and a bad atmosphere. Who wants that on their construction site.
Being a client is a leadership task. Many confuse "leading" with "pushing." These people then work with pressure and often end up in confrontational situations. Pressure creates counterpressure, and trying to "break" partners and thinking in terms of power is a recipe for trouble.
What you can do if you want to handle situations like the current one more effectively: Spend some time with leadership tools – entertaining literature includes, among others, "The One Minute Manager" or "Fish." These contain examples and recommendations that are easy to try out in practice. It costs almost nothing and will help you achieve better results on your own construction and manage friction points so that you reach your goal with your partners and not fail against them.
