Women in leadership positions have traditionally faced pushback and discrimination, regardless of their industry. In a male-dominated industry like construction, the barriers to entry and acceptance are even greater.
Join Jenny Ridenour in this episode of Matters of Creative as she welcomes Tammy Birklid, the Owner and President of Merit Construction, who shares her inspiring journey through the construction industry. Tammy talks about transforming workplace discrimination into valuable opportunities, the fundamental qualities of mentors and leaders, and her future leadership goals.
Tammy Birklid is a force of change and an exemplary leader in the male-dominated construction industry. Having ascended from an office assistant to owning a multimillion-dollar construction business, Tammy faced bias from her male counterparts. Rather than let it discourage her, she leveraged the insights she gained from an industry mentor and began championing integrity, mentorship, and inclusive leadership in her company. To catalyze gender equality, Tammy recommends fostering an empathetic and inclusive workplace culture and promoting diversity.
Listen today for inspiration on how you can revolutionize your field and create positive change.
