Conflict is natural, healthy and an inevitable part of being human. Navigating conflict offers a rich practice grounds for deepening connection with ourselves and each other when handled skillfully. Our capacity to handle conflict skillfully can be the difference between a highly successful team (see Google's Study "Project Aristotle" on high performing teams) or imploding trust, shared commitment and contribution. Learning practical skills to say what we mean, feel truly heard and listening skillfully to others takes courage and genuine leadership (whether you're leading from the bench or from the top of the org chart). Growing our awareness of our own patterns, stories, strategies can help us recognize when we're in reactivity and (courageously) shift towards a more thoughtful and responsive approach.
Join this active and engaging session to learn or deepen your skills in the (Courageous) Art of Managing Workplace Conflict.

For Heavy/Highway contractors the cost of equipment and operating their fleet is substantial. Ineffective fleet operations can result in a number of profit leaks. Many of these may not be apparent or seem insignificant, but substantially reduce the contractor’s bottom line. This presentation will expose these leaks and show how current technology can stop them.

As many construction companies focus on long-term strategic growth, attracting and retaining employees has become increasingly critical. In addition to enhanced employee engagement and retention, a diverse and inclusive (D&I) culture has direct links to greater innovation, higher levels of performance, and profitability. Both construction employers and labor unions increasingly recognize the value of D&I and are implementing programs to encourage members of underrepresented groups to join the construction industry.

Join us for a panel discussion on the current and future impact of D&I on business outcomes. This diverse group of panelists will leverage their industry expertise, sharing ideas and best practices from their D&I programs. Join this session to learn how your company can benefit from implementing D&I strategies.
