About this Event
The construction industry has long been dominated by men, but recent years have witnessed a significant push towards greater diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).DEI initiatives strive to create an environment where everyone, regardless of gender, race, or background, can thrive. This is particularly critical for women in construction, who often encounter unique challenges and stereotypes. As we convene in Chicago to delve into these crucial issues, it is imperative that our panelists discuss the existing stereotypes and address the needs that must be met to foster a more inclusive and supportive industry in construction. The panel discussion will be a platform for sharing stories,discussing best practices, and exploring innovative solutions to advance DEI in our industry.
