We are kicking off the NAWIC New Year with Cocktails with Karen Hager. This is a casual event where you can take the time to chat with your President and NAWIC sisters. Join NAWIC's National President on the last Wednesday of every month starting October 25.

This event will feature amazing guest speakers, installation demos, giveaways, plus topics and insights specific to women in the Construction Industry. Tague Lumber is hoping to reach women interested in the construction-related trades, building, architecture, civil engineering, project management, CAD/CAM, CNC, woodworking, all aspects of design, and all areas of trade-related support services. (PLUS teachers, mentors, trainers, etc.). 

Join the electrical and systems contracting industry October 16-18 in the dynamic city of Dallas, Texas, to embark on an unparalleled journey of growth and empowerment. Use the promo code "NAWIC15" for 15% off full registration.

 

 

 

Construction Inclusion Week is just around the corner! There are some great resources and events you don't want to miss, so be on the lookout soon.

We often hear the refrain that we should accentuate our strengths and minimize our weaknesses.  This is generally good advice and an approach that works in many situations.  Before you can begin implementing that approach, we all need self-awareness to recognize those traits.  Or at least openness to receiving feedback from others.  Getting beyond our blind spots and accepting our natural selves is an important first step.
