“Woman leaders in the sector have an opportunity to be role models to younger generations, since climbing the career ladder in a male-dominated environment is not a straightforward task. I’d ask the person to first look for the right opportunities and apply for companies that align with their values on diversity. Second, network with other females in the industry to build a strong support base. And third, be passionate about what they do, as this will shine through regardless of gender. Increasing diversity in the construction industry needs to begin during childhood years. Teachers and parents play an important role in encouraging females to select STEM subjects.”
