Abstract/Summary
This paper highlights the activities and presentations that will take place during the women in construction leadership summit prior to the Girls Build Summer Academy for high school girls. The leadership summit is a two-day event that will consist of presentations on important leadership and construction topics. The presentations will cover topics such as confidence, safety, leadership assessment activity, tool shop training, emerging trends, career paths, jobsite visit, and a women’s panel. This leadership summit will be implemented in the summer of 2023 and will take place at Cal Poly’s campus in the Construction Innovations Center. The scope of this paper will explain why the presentation topics were chosen and the content that they should include based on an extensive literature review. This leadership summit will follow a similar structure to the Women in Kiewit leadership conference. The goal is to provide leadership guidance to young women who want to work in the construction industry and to implement resources to help the summer camp grow.
