The National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC), founded in 1953, created Women in Construction Week as a way to recognize advancements women have made in the building profession. Often the topic of women in construction is focused on the challenges, inequalities, and disadvantages but this discussion is meant to highlight some of the women we know who are working—and excelling—in the industry.

This episode of the Fine Homebuilding podcast is brought to you by BuildBook.

A lot of construction pros have a common problem; your construction management software is either non-existent, or it is too slow and too complex. It shouldn’t be bogged down with complicated features that you have to attend an academy to learn how to use. You need software you can start using DAY ONE without training… That is faster and more reliable than your notepad. That allows you, your team and your clients to always know what’s getting done and when. And your software should reduce stress, not increase it. The solution? BuildBook.
BuildBook is built for today’s modern builder with everything you need, nothing you don’t. Whether you’re a one man operation or a business with a large crew, BuildBook has plans to fit your budget. No nagging sales calls, tricky upsells or hidden fees. Head over to BuildBook.co and sign up for a free 10-day trial — and don’t forget to mention that you heard about them on the Fine Homebuilding podcast.
