Norma Jean
Andersen
Technology
Pfaffmann,
O.L. Building on Success.
Fraser, MI: Woods Construction, 2001.
Dr.
Andersen chose this book because:
“I chose this book because O.L. Pfaffmann (Ozzie) has been an
inspiration to everyone in the construction industry for over 50 years.
I have known Ozzie for over 12 years.
He initiated and promoted the development of the American Institute of
Constructors and was instrumental in the Certified Professional Constructor
Exam. Both of these efforts laid
the foundation that has promoted professionalism in the construction industry
and has promoted the constructor to the same professional status as our
counterparts, the architects and engineers.
The story of his company is a tribute to a man who lives his chosen
profession as a professional and an inspiration to all who enter the field of
construction. Just this year, he
was given an honorary doctor degree for his efforts.”
