Paula Hammond has broken numerous glass ceilings. In addition to being the first woman to be appointed secretary of Washington State Department of Transportation, she is also the first woman and former state DOT CEO to serve as board chair of the American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA). We recently had the incredible opportunity to interview Paula as part of our InfraTalk on the Road series at the 2023 AASHTO (American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials) Annual Meeting in Indianapolis. During their conversation, Paula and ITA Publisher Gregory G. Nadeau discussed the importance of a diverse and equitable workforce, the role innovation plays in addressing the industry's chronic workforce shortage, and the importance of representation. “Civil engineering has struggled over the years to get more diverse and to grow," says Hammond. "The computer engineering world that I live in in Seattle. You know, they take people away from the kinds of dirty boots engineering that we grew up to do. And so that’s a challenge. But the opportunity, the upside, is there is space and room for women and minorities to join the ranks of DOTs; and, to really, truly represent the populations that we are serving.” Stream the full episode here: https://lnkd.in/gXFhF8kx #WomensHistoryMonth #WomenLeadingInnovation #Transportation #Infrastructure #Innovation #InfraTalkontheRoad
