Apprenticeships Are Earned Not Owed | Thomas Karanikolaou BBA #10

Send us a textOn this month’s episode, we sit down with Thomas from Builders Blueprint.Thomas shares the culture he fosters with his apprentices and highlights the importance of keeping things old school. From his early days hustling to get onto a building site, to running a company focused on legacy homes for Pasifika and Māori families, Thomas opens up about what it takes to succeed in the trade. He talks about the difference between today’s apprentices and the old-school approach he was brought up with, why banter and honesty are essential on site, and how transparency, consistency, and self-development shape a great apprentice. We also dive into his purpose-driven business, the challenges and rewards of mentoring, and how keeping it simple has helped him stay true to his vision.
