Today's episode of The Lead With Trust Show marks another part of the Bring Women into Construction series, and this time Sue chats with Kellie Lee, a construction technology veteran who has worked in the industry for over a decade. She spent nearly six years at part of the team that worked to grow Procore Technologies, a SaaS company that connects people, applications, and devices in one central hub, as well as several construction technology start-ups. Along with her experience and knowledge, she also has a passion for making construction a viable career path for women - starting with children.
During the episode, Sue and Kellie discuss her passion for diversity and inclusion in the industry, and how that really began with her work at Procore, alongside her friend and co-worker, Danielle Edberg.
They look at the book Kellie and her husband are writing, which will tell the stories of countless incredible and powerful women on job sites who built the world that people interact with every day.
They also discuss the biggest barriers for women entering the construction industry, as well as Kellie's belief that those barriers are formed all the way in childhood, when, as parents, we take away a young girl's ability to be brave.
Join Sue and Kellie for this fascinating discussion.
