I’m currently taking part in the AGC of California’s Emerging Leaders Academy, which is a year-long program designed for people in the construction industry who are looking to grow into leadership roles. The first and last sessions are in person, which has been a great way to connect with others in the program, and the rest of the classes are online. The program focuses a lot on learning how to lead teams better, communicate more clearly, and understand things like scheduling, budgeting, and project planning. There’s also a capstone project at the end where we apply what we’ve learned to a real work situation. It’s been a great experience so far and I feel like I’m getting a lot of useful tools that I can use in my day-to-day work.
Sincerely,
Manuel Ledesma
