Day 3 of #ConstructionInclusionWeek is focused on Supplier Diversity. Promoting diversity in the AEC industry is a pillar of Professional Women in Construction Chicago Chapter’s mission so we launched a new event series in 2024 called Meet the Primes and recently hosted an A/E-centered Meet the Primes at Turner Construction Company. The event generated introductions between prime architect/engineers and MWDBE-certified subconsultants. We enjoyed breakfast along with meaningful connections from which future diverse partnerships will flourish! Thank you to all who participated and look for more Meet the Primes events in 2025. ? We'll only ensure that we remain on the path to continuous improvement by tracking our progress along the way. Don't miss our next DEI Committee event on November 6-- Northwestern Medicine will host our #CandidConvo focused on measuring DEI progress in the AEC industry. We will discuss which key metrics are most useful in tracking progress-- from turnover rates of minority groups, leadership opportunities, pay equity, and hiring process to overall feeling of inclusion. This is our last #CandidConvo of 2024 and space is limited so register today at https://lnkd.in/eHJ-YUfv #ConstructionInclusionWeek #SupplierDiversity #MeetthePrimes #DEICandidConvo #ProfessionalWomeninConstruction #ProfessionalWomeninConstructionChicago

This week our industry is celebrating #ConstructionInclusionWeek-- https://lnkd.in/d3riPRC. Today-- Day 2-- is all about Belonging. When people can connect and feel like they belong, they can bring their authentic selves to their work. They can be more engaged and productive, leading to more collaboration and better problem solving. At Professional Women in Construction Chicago Chapter, we are committed to promoting a sense of belonging for all persons in our membership and within the broader AEC community in Chicago. As we grow, we continue to reflect on our programming content and how we connect with each other so that we can cultivate belonging not only at our own events but also within the community. Check out our upcoming events at https://lnkd.in/ggC8fUGV #ConstructionInclusionWeek #CIW2024 #Belonging #ProfessionalWomeninConstruction #ProfessionalWomeninConstructionChicago

Happy Indigenous People's Day! Today, Professional Women in Construction Chicago Chapter honors the rich histories and contributions of Indigenous peoples and their impact on the construction industry.

It’s a time to reflect on their contributions, recognize the importance of preserving their traditions and rights, and an opportunity to celebrate the different Indigenous cultures that enrich our communities. #IndigenousPeoplesDay #CelebrateDiversity #CulturalHeritage

We kicked off the celebration at our Professional Women in Construction Chicago Chapter Annual Member Meeting with heartfelt member stories. One shared about how attending our smaller networking events and engaging with other members made her feel confident enough to actually come on stage and share her experience in front of this larger audience. Others described how joining our 1:1 mentorship program looking for career guidance gained them not only that but a new confidant and friend. The common thread to these inspiring stories? We celebrate being part of a community who are showing up daily to support each other.? ? The Board of Directors shared highlights of our chapter’s growth as we enter our 4th year (over 460 members from more than 100 companies!) and of the many new ways we’ve come together in 2024 (Meet the Primes! Founders Panel!). We took a moment to recognize and appreciate our Founding President Jean Gallo Wine as she passes the helm to new Chapter President Sara Urizar. And we recruited members to join our amazing committees that work tirelessly to support our mission. We are reinvigorated and excited for what our next year will bring! Interested in joining us?
