Henry Nutt’s Journey of Service, Leadership, and Legacy 

Henry Nutt’s journey in construction began not with a title or a plan — but with a quiet example. As a young man working alongside his father, he learned the kind of values that don’t come from textbooks: integrity, humility, patience, and the power of showing up for others. 

Over the decades, Henry has grown from those early lessons into a respected leader — not just because of what he’s built, but because of how he builds. His career has been shaped by challenges, setbacks, and moments of uncertainty, each one teaching him more about people, purpose, and the importance of empathy and resilience. He’s come to believe that success isn’t found in status — it’s found in serving others, lifting teams, and leading with heart.
Today, Henry brings that spirit to everything he does. As a “preconstruction executive” at “Southland Industries”, he helps teams deliver with excellence and intention. But his impact stretches far beyond job sites. From his leadership on the AGC of California State Board and the Contractor’s State License Board to his role as a former chair of AGC of America’s Diversity & Inclusion Council and the Lean Construction Institute, Henry is a trusted voice advocating for inclusion, access, and real opportunity. 

He was inducted into the National Academy of Construction in 2024 — a reflection not only of his expertise, but of the deep care he brings to every interaction, every role, every person.  Through HGN3 and his workshops based on the Seven Principles: Creating Your Success in the Construction Industry, Henry shares the lessons he has learned: how to lead with integrity, embrace change, and build a more human-centered construction industry. 

This isn’t just about leadership training — it’s about transformation. One person, one project, one principle at a time.
Join us. Let’s lead with purpose — and build what truly matters.
