NAWIC Today Jan. Feb.: Meet the Committees

Crissy Ingram, CAE Executive Director

Well, we reached 2023!

The past year has been a whirlwind of excitement, changes, and new NAWIC records. I am so proud of the work that we have accomplished and cannot wait to see what else is in store. Much of the work that we have accomplished in the past year could not have been done without the contribution of our National Committees. From our record-shattering WIC

Week to the amazing webinars and educational tools provided by the Emerging Professionals and Professional Development & Education Committees, our chairs and committee members have worked tirelessly to ensure that NAWIC is providing women with the tools that they need to succeed, both professionally and personally..

Here are just a few of the highlights from our committees over 2022:

The DE&I Committee worked closely with the NAWIC Board of Directors to launch our partnership with CAAP, which will provide us with a closer look at where we are hitting and missing the inclusion and engagement marks. The Chapter Development Committee held a series of webinars and an in-person session at conference all about chapter leadership; from finding resources to what each position should be doing, they covered a wide variety of topics and were an extremely important tool for chapters. The Emerging Professionals Committee provided chapters with a step-by-step tool kit for hosting an Employer Appreciation Dinner. PD&E taught members how to cultivate their personal branding, how to make the most of their woman-owned business, and so much more.

Our committees are continuing to work on exciting projects to further advance the success of women in construction. Keep reading to find out more about what they have been up to and what you can look forward to!

As always, the National Staff and I are always available if you need anything. Have a wonderful new year and we will talk soon!
