Nomination Period Opens for 2023 Developing Industry Leaders Program

NRMCA is welcoming nominations for the 2023 Developing Industry Leaders (DIL) program through May 1. The DIL program is a premier career development tool, with participants given the opportunity to advance their strategic-thinking skills and network with peers while being mentored by NRMCA’s senior staff. The DIL agenda differs from other leadership programs in that it exposes 25 selected participants to our industry’s big issues from an all-encompassing, national perspective.

Once selected, DILs work over the summer via conference calls and webinars. They are then required to attend ConcreteWorks in Nashville from September 29 - October 3. The group continues to work via conference calls over the fall and winter. They will then present their findings at the March 2024 NRMCA Annual Convention. During their second year, DILs attend a two-day, networking and leadership workshop facilitated by an executive coach. Finally, once their initial work is over individuals are asked to make a long-term commitment to move their team’s initiative(s) forward by joining and attending the appropriate NRMCA committee’s meetings twice a year as well as participate in annual DIL alumni events. Additionally, they may attend NRMCA’s semi-annual Board of Directors meetings to watch senior level executives deliberate and make both short- and long-term strategic decisions that impact the industry.
