Retaining mid-career women and gender-diverse professionals continues to be a significant challenge across the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (A/E/C) industry. This event shifts the conversation from why people leave to why they stay, highlighting the experiences of professionals who have navigated challenges, made career pivots, and built lasting careers in the industry.
The evening will begin with a panel discussion exploring the experiences, decisions, and lessons that have shaped our panelists’ careers:
- Tamsin Silvester, WSP
- Cindy Lund, City of Calgary
- Kelsey Anderson, DIALOG
- Lucy Makina, WSP
The discussion will be moderated by Keely Sullivan, City of Calgary.
Following the panel, attendees will have the opportunity to continue the conversation through a casual mentorship and networking session. Connect with experienced professionals, share stories, ask questions, and seek advice from mentors across the A/E/C industry:
- Lauren Jans, Mott MacDonald
- Jaime Graves, WaterSmart
- Amelie Thibault, WSP
- Alana Redding, RJC
- Kanwal Zarrar, WSP
Join us for an evening of meaningful discussion, mentorship, and connection, and hear from women who have chosen to stay, pivot, and build lasting careers in A/E/C.
