Construction isn't broken because people don't care -- it's broken because the system they're forced to use was never designed to work.

10 Myths About CPM is a bold, no-BS takedown of the Critical Path Method -- a system that's hijacked the construction industry for decades. In this unapologetic book, Jason Schroeder pulls back the curtain on how CPM drives chaos, overburdens teams, wrecks trust, and quietly systematizes disrespect for the very people who build our projects.

This isn't theory. It's real-world. It's raw. It's field-tested.

Inside, you'll uncover:

• Why CPM increases work-in-progress and crushes productivity

• How it undermines flow, trust, safety, and morale

• The shocking truth behind construction's mental health crisis -- and CPM's role in it

• What better systems like Takt Planning, Last Planner®, and Critical Chain can offer

• How to switch from "push" to flow-based scheduling that respects people and delivers results

This book is your permission slip to question the status quo -- and a practical roadmap for building better, smarter, and with more humanity.

Let's stop building in spite of our systems -- and start creating systems that build with us.
