Women in Construction: Listen to Be Heard
Wednesday, April 10
Goei Center in Grand Rapids
4:00 – 6:30 pm
This free event is open to all and will acknowledge the barriers often faced by hardworking women in a historically male-dominated industry. The engaging afternoon is designed to provide tools and communication strategies to help advance the role of women in the construction industry.
Active listening can help achieve gender equity by fostering understanding, empathy, and inclusivity in communication. By listening attentively to diverse voices and experiences, individuals and organizations can challenge gender biases, create supportive environments, and work towards a more equitable society for all.
After a round of Q&A, in-person attendees will have time for follow-up discussions and networking. This event is intended for everyone interested in the construction trade: women, men, students, field crews, and industry leaders.
