As #ConstructionInclusionWeek2024 comes to a close, Day 5 is all about Community Engagement. At Professional Women in Construction Chicago Chapter, we are continuously striving to find new ways to bring our mission of supporting and advancing women in the AEC industry into our community. Our Mentorship Committee not only leads those efforts with outreach into schools and other mission-aligned organizations, they also have a knack for creating new relationships organically at our pop-up Happy Hour events. At our 3rd Annual Fall Happy Hour at the Weathermark Tavern, members and newcomers mingled over refreshments and forged connections. We were especially excited to welcome a large group from Revolution Workshop – staff along with participants and recent grads from their Professional Pathways Program (PPP), where they are receiving technology, design, and project management skills training courses to prepare them for career advancement opportunities in the AEC industry. #ConstructionInclusionWeek #CommunityEngagement #RevolutionWorkshop #ProfessionalPathwaysProgram #ProfessionalWomeninConstruction #ProfessionalWomeninConstructionChicagoChapter

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.

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
