Time: 8:40 am
day: Conference Day 2
Details:
- Set the Stage: Discuss the challenge of the construction industry’s workforce deficit in both the office and the field. We have all the challenges most companies face; normal upward mobility, backfilling behind promotions, and succession. However, senior superintendents are retiring, and a limited pipeline of younger talent is available to fill behind them. Also, there are numerous executives getting close to retirement and they are anxious about ensuring that those identified to replace them are prepared to lead the company in the future.
- Our Solution: Share XL Construction’s approach to creating a leadership development program that impacts the entire company; from the C-suite to frontline managers and individual contributors. Examine the structure we designed that is based on defined competencies and fundamental leadership principles. Explain some of the tools we use to guide employee development.
