In this episode, I talk with Kabri Lehrman-Schmid, Superintendent at Hensel Phelps, about Building with STEM: Leadership and Inclusion in Construction.
Here are some of the questions I ask Kabri Lehrman-Schmid:
- How has your background in STEM influenced your approach to leadership in construction?
- What strategies do you implement to promote inclusivity and diversity on construction sites?
- Can you share a specific project where STEM principles made a significant impact on the outcome?
Here are some key points discussed in this episode about Building with STEM: Leadership And Inclusion In Construction
- The integration of STEM disciplines in construction and how they drive innovation and efficiency.
- The role of leadership in fostering a culture of inclusion and support for diverse teams.
- Real-world examples of how STEM solutions have addressed challenges and enhanced project success.
