Construction Executive 2023 Construction Economic Forecast is focused on one thing: the labor market. Here's what the post-pandemic, infrastructure spending, legal immigration, and retiring Baby Boomers mean for the industry's skilled workforce-and lack thereof. ❗ It's so important to reach every female in our country to see if they are open to exploring a construction, manufacturing, & industrial option for a career or a role. Christi Powell & Angela Gardner are extremely committed to helping educate the women in our country on all of their options!! The benefits of working in construction, infrastructure, manufacturing & industrial spaces are …

The last few years have been a ride of a lifetime. A dream of helping others and 84 Lumber 's commitment to communities have enabled us to make an impact on many small, women, and minority owned businesses. Racquel Sparks won the "Next Generation Builder" award in New York. We've been working with her and supporting her for almost one year. I was also honored among so many other amazing women, to win an award for "Outstanding Women" which was quite a shock from the group of ladies who were more than qualified for the same honor. It matters to invest in people. We love making a difference and seeing growth of women and minorities in business. Thank you to e…

She is a graduating senior in the Percy J. Vaughn, Jr. College of Business Administration. She has been working on her honors thesis which revolves around attitudes and opinions about women in the construction industry. Earlier this year, I reached out to your local chapter of the National Women in Construction and was provided by some a list of the members to contact or you may have been asked to follow up with me if you wanted to participate in the study.
