The Construction Record Podcast is covering ConExpo, North America’s biggest construction conference from March 10 to March 14. Daily Commercial News and Journal of Commerce national managing editor Vince Versace and digital media editor Warren Frey are your boots on the ground for news and networking at the intersection of building, labour, soft skills, technology and a myriad of other products, services and topics affecting the construction industry.
Warren had an interview with Mallorie Brodie, the CEO and co-founder of Bridgit, who will moderate a panel at ConExpo titled “New Approach to Building Female Construction Leaders” at Pavilion 11 of the Westgate Building. Brodie and the rest of the panel will look at the effects of mentoring and gender equality programs, as well as identifying where gender bias exists and how it can be mitigated.
