Women Executives in Building

Women in trades are daring the rest of us to confront stereotypes that still hold women back. Powerful women defying the odds in a predominantly male industry need to be aligned to increase awareness of labor shortages and lack of diversity.

Now, in these challenging and unprecedented times, women executives in the built environment must come together, support each other and share thoughts and ideas on how we are providing value. Many of you work from home, while managing and keeping teams inspired and motivated. All this while running households, home schooling children, and trying to maintain mental health.

We invite women in the c-suite of the built environment to come together to share ideas, challenges and solutions to current issues.
