Empowering Women in Construction to LEAD
We have an opportunity to shape the future of construction.
We can EMPOWER women to confidently fill essential roles and consistently develop top talent.
Women represent 11% of the industry. There are fewer examples of what women in leadership looks like. In addition, women aren’t always prepared to lead other women.
Underrepresented
Women will doubt their capabilities despite their achievements. Those attempting to enter the industry may feel intimidated or undereducated compared to their male counterparts.
Imposter Syndrome
Women want to see that there is a clear path toward advancing their careers and growing professionally.
Career Path Clarity
Women receive sponsorship only half as often as they receive mentorship. They often mistake one for the other and don’t advocate for themselves.
Mentorship vs. Sponsorship
CHALLENGES WOMEN IN CONSTRUCTION FACE
Women are often the primary caregivers for their families and may lack flexibility in their schedules beyond the standard work-day hours..
Schedules
Most training does not take into consideration the barriers and challenges women face.
Focused Training
The Empowered Program is a transformational leadership journey designed specifically for women in construction. Through interactive workshops, peer collaboration, and personal reflection, participants grow in confidence, clarity, and competence—developing practical strategies to overcome industry barriers and lead with authenticity.
