Architecture, Construction and Engineering are all struggling with a tremendous shortage of skilled talent. It is more important than ever for organizations to be able to attract, support and retain a talented workforce and to encourage more women to pursue and build vibrant careers in architecture, engineering and construction. Unfortunately, their attrition rate also remains high in these industries. Developing and retaining a skilled workforce includes identifying and addressing the specific needs of women in our industry. Man or Woman; Male or Female Brain, I-LinCP’s Annual Invest in Women Forum will give you and your team the tools you need to excel as an Employer of Choice and a road-map for individual continued career planning and success .
This unique Forum provides a venue to engage everyone from executives to those just beginning their careers with active, hands-on sessions and vibrant networking with the best and brightest in the A/E/C industry. In our usual I-LinCP Forum style, Keynotes become table participants and table participants become presenters, encouraging participants to assimilate what they are learning. Join local, state and national leaders and subject matter experts as we candidly explore and address the issues affecting women in our industry .
This Forum provides a venue to openly discuss issues affecting women in our industry and ideas and strategies to address those issues.
The program includes:
Morning refreshments
Keynote presentation
Presentations and Panel discussion(s) with women and men in our industry: architecture, engineering, construction, facility Owners, educators, agency leaders
Facilitated table discussions and open discussion with your peers and subject experts
Workshops to gain actionable information
Take-aways and resources to assist in positive change
Lunch and breaks (where the “magic” happens)
Networking reception with wine and nibbles
You will come away with ideas you can implement within your organization to build processes and a supportive culture for women.
