#OneLadder

Please join us at Cinder Block Brewery on Monday, April 10th from 5:00-7:00 PM.  The PD&E topic for Monday is #OneLadder.  Come listen to our very own Barb Allen as she walks us through identifying, overcoming, and eliminating the challenges women face climbing the construction career ladder.
 
In today’s construction industry, the 4 primary challenges that exist for women wanting to advance in leadership roles can be related to ladder rungs that are Broken, Missing, Slippery, and Sticky.  In this presentation, we will not only talk about what causes these hazards and how to overcome them, but also how we can work together to build safer, more equitable, leadership ladders within our industry.
 
Registration is $30.00/person which includes an open bar and a delightful assortment of heavy hors d’oeuvres from Seasons Local Catering.  Please register by Monday, April 3rd. This is not a members-only event, please extend the invitation to your friends and colleagues.
