One of the best outcomes of appearing on construction industry podcasts like Justin Neagle's Building Scale to talk about my new book is the connections I continue to make in the industry with people who care about helping women thrive. Justin introduced me to Move Over Bob founders Angie Cacace and Kate Glantz, two tradeswomen who are doing amazing work to attract teenage girls into the construction industry. Their strategy of a free "sassy little magazine" for not only these girls also but their parents, guidance counselors, and teachers with specific information on how to explore a career in construction trades is incredibly creative.

However, he takes it a step further by integrating God's wisdom into this mentality, illustrating how divine guidance elevates our efforts beyond earthly achievements.

Do I know all there is to know about leadership? Absolutely not! Which is why I love bringing leadership experts like William Davis onto the Greatness Podcast to share their insights. William's book, How to Lead Without Just Managing, is an excellent resource on how to serve those you lead and develop the leadership skills that lead to high-performing teams of people.
Do you matter? Do the people you work with feel that they matter? Employee engagement, despite becoming a $1 billion industry, is at a 10-year low. Only 39% of employees say someone cares for them.My good friend and fellow PhD student Zach Mercurio joined the Greatness Podcast to share research-based insights from his latest book, The Power of Mattering. Sixty-percent of people are in what Zach calls "front line, low choice occupations", and leaders help all people find meaning in their work by "adding rigor to caring". "We expect people to care before they feel cared for." We also create systems that reward for things other than caring. Caring is a skill that can be learned and Zach shares specific actions leaders take that make people feel they matter, such as "schedule good intentions".

Practical tools and tactics to offset what she calls the "dual cocktail of power and pressure" abound. "The role of self care is job number one."

What better way to celebrate Women in Construction Week in the US than a podcast about my soon-to-be-released book, Building Women Leaders: A Blueprint for Women Thriving in Construction.

It's been an honour to write this book and I look forward to kicking off my book speaking tour at the Associated General Contractors (AGC) conference in April.
How do you double the percentage of women on a construction project? Improve wellbeing? And achieve better project outcomes? Dean Riha of Fulton Hogan shares an incredible case study of the implementation of the construction industry Culture Standard in Australia that focuses upon increasing 1) time for life, 2) wellbeing, and 3) diversity while improving productivity and project outcomes. This pilot project finished on time, on budget, and people worked 21 days less with no loss in take home pay and no loss in productivity. RMIT's academic research showed an improvement in engagement and wellbeing. The project had 21% women and over 8% women in the trades versus the typical 2-3% (a third of the senior leadership was female as well).

I believe that being intentional about your personal leadership brand and how you are authentic to your personal purpose and values is critical to great leadership. Harrison Monarth, Executive Coach and NY Times Bestselling Author, agrees, and I was inspired by his HBR article on the topic to invite him to share his wisdom on the Greatness podcast. This is not about disingenuous manipulation. It is about deeply understanding your values, what you stand for, and understanding if this is indeed how people are experiencing you as a leader. Harrison shares amazing tips for understanding and conveying your personal brand.
Suicide has impacted so many of our lives and I'm saddened by the high rates of suicide in the construction industry. In Australia, someone in the construction industry commits suicide every other day, and workers are eight times more like to die by suicide than by a job site accident. Brad Parker, CEO New South Wales (Australia) of Mates in Construction, joined the Greatness Podcast to discuss their great work in the industry to create "mateship" and normalize conversations about mental health.
Do you know a gender diverse person in the construction industry? You may have seen my earlier LinkedIn post about the amazing Evelyn Lai, Site Engineer for Nacap, A Quanta Services Company. Evelyn participated in a recent leadership panel I facilitated at the Australian Pipelines and Gas Association annual conference and shared their experiences of being a gender diverse person in our industry. I immediately realized that this was a story I wanted to share more broadly with the construction industry. I really appreciate Evelyn taking the time to join the Greatness Podcast and candidly share their journey. Understanding how we create an industry where all people feel they belong is critical for our sustainability.
Everyone needs to listen to this Greatness podcast with Vanessa Bennett, neuroscience expert, coach, and speaker. Why? We have learned more about the brain in the last five years than in the history of humankind and that knowledge is invaluable to us all. Vanessa shares concrete tips about how to "optimize your cognitive energy" in a way that allows you to improve your mental health and your performance, and avoid burnout. Our brains hate ambiguity, and even anticipating a difficult conversation creates stress. It's not enough to learn about our brains. The key is to build new habits that reduce stress and help us lead happier, healthier lives.

Concrete examples of how artificial intelligence (AI) is helping organizations accelerate performance are quite helpful to me. I was completely blown away by a CURT presentation by TD Industries Vice President Jamie Dabbs and Barry Nelson, Founder and CEO of FactorLab, describing how they used an app to collect 500,000 daily planning conversation videos, then analyze 90,000 of these videos. The output, understanding things like what words and phrases truly engage crews, and how to then train superintendents to be more effective in leading safety conversations, resulted in a significant improvement in the safety results of this company. This is a must-listen as they describe the steps it took to enact this significant change and embrace cutting edge technology.

Is your organization developing an AI strategy? If not, you should be. Dr. Sarah Buchner, Founder and CEO of Trunk Tools, started out working in the trades in construction, and now is driving artificial intelligence (AI) innovation and practical implementation. It's mind bending for me to think about how millions of pages of construction documents can be loaded into an AI application that allows you to ask a question, like "What is the paint specification for Room 83, Level 4" and receive an immediate answer. I firmly believe that, regardless of your industry, creating and executing an AI strategy is essential to future success. Sarah shares many practical tips that are applicable in any industry.
