ACEC-BC Event: Leadership Panel

November 09, 2016

Are you going to lead, follow, or get out of the way?

Recent studies have shown that the rapid pace of technological innovation means greater demand for engineers, geoscientists, technologists, and technicians in the future. With an expanding economy and retirement projections, BC’s consulting engineers could face a range of labour market challenges over the next 10 years.  In a tight labour market, managing succession and building comprehensive succession plans and experienced worker retention programs can be central tools for expanding and maintaining a workforce.

Is your company ready?

With the future skills shortage, this timely topic will prepare ACEC-BC members to identify and develop leaders within their organizations.

Following the seminar will be a panel discussion with 3 prominent leaders from the industry. This is an excellent session for those who are aspiring to advance their careers, as well as those who are preparing their firm to transition into the next new wave of leaders.
