Terry, Steve, and Bob Dunn
Few companies are more deeply woven into the fabric of Kansas City than JE Dunn Construction.
In this episode of There’s Just Something About Kansas City, we sit down with brothers Terry, Steve, and Bob Dunn for a conversation about family, business, leadership, and the evolution of one of the nation’s leading construction companies.
The Dunn brothers reflect on growing up in the business and learning from the ground up, an experience that continues to shape the company’s culture and work ethic today. They share the story behind JE Dunn’s rise from a local contractor to a nationally respected builder with projects spanning healthcare, sports, education, civic infrastructure, and transformative developments across the country.
We also explore the future of the construction industry, including workforce shortages, skilled trades, evolving technology, and the growing impact of AI on building and project management.
Along the way, the brothers offer thoughtful advice for young people considering careers in the trades and discuss the importance of relationships, community impact, and philanthropy in shaping long-term success.
This episode is about much more than construction - it’s about legacy, innovation, and helping build the future of Kansas City and beyond.
