Behind the Scenes of Our TEDx Clemson Journey ποΈ 'Vision to Victory: Through Blueprints and Breakthroughs'
"It's a humble reminder of what we can achieve when women come together, not just to support but to elevate each other."β€οΈ
Preparing for our TEDx Clemson University was a whirlwind of excitement and hard work. Every step, from scripting to rehearsing, was a labor of love, driven by our passion for the construction industry.
The goal....
π Spotlighting the incredible potential for growth in construction
π Aiming to add 501,000 more people to the workforce by 2024
π Creative options to help attract and retain talent (and Women)
This isn't just about numbers; it's about opening doors to opportunities in what we believe is the best industry in the world. ποΈπͺ
This message is something that Angela Gardner and Christi Powell are committed to spreading. We don't just plan to make waves; we are creating a Tidal Shift in how we view and engage with PEOPLE and construction. Our dedication ensures that more individuals, especially women, see the value and possibilities within our field. π·ββοΈπ·ββοΈ
This journey wouldn't have been possible without the unwavering support from our families. They've been our backbone, offering encouragement and making countless sacrifices. And the companies we work for: 84 Lumber Company and Hill Electric.
A special mention to Deb Sofield - Speaker, whose guidance and support were invaluable and help us craft this vital TEDx message. πβ€οΈ
Here's to making history, one brick and beam at a time. Let's keep building, together!
π¬ The full TEDx will be video will be available soon and we will share. π¬
