#144: David Weekley is the Founder & Chairman at David Weekley Homes, which is one of the largest national homebuilders. He is also one of the most well respected homebuilders in the nation.
Throughout more than 45 years of home building excellence, David Weekley Homes has earned hundreds of awards for design, quality and Customer Satisfaction, and have established a solid reputation for delivering on their Brand Promise to provide the best in Design, Choice and Service for more than 115,000 Homebuyers. And over the course of his company’s history, David's formula for providing exceptional Customer Satisfaction has remained the same: hire your industry's best and keep them happy, so they’ll in turn go the extra mile and delight our Customers. This rewarding workplace culture has even been recognized 17 times by Fortune magazine as one of the 100 Best Companies to Work For.
At 23, David teamed up with his older brother, Dick, to establish David Weekley Homes in Houston, Texas, in 1976. David worked as a Salesperson, Purchasing Manager and Builder. To differentiate his homes from competing national companies, he paid close attention to home design. The company was selling close to 600 homes a year in Houston alone, leading David to grow his Team of talented people and earning us recognition as one of the fastest-growing companies in the nation by Inc. magazine.
Even though much has changed since 1976, their Purpose of Building Dreams, Enhancing Lives has never wavered.
On the show David shares his story, the impact of family, gives a masterclass on growing and operating a company, choosing to give away half his time and resources, creating a great culture, taking action, choosing where and how to spend your time giving back, focusing less on you and more on others and much more!
