Women Contractors Who Grow Their Companies by Growing Their Networks
We had the honor of interviewing two women from the Association of Women Contractors in today's episode! Barb Lau, its Executive Director, and Missy Scherber, an AWC member and Co-founder of Scherber Excavating. It was a fabulous conversation!
AWC was founded by a small group of women contractors in 1995, since then it has grown to 230 members, made of women owned commercial and residential contracting companies who provide an array of services in commercial construction projects. The organization has three primary goals for its members:
- Member Advocacy (within their industry, community and in politics)
- Industry and Business Education
- Business Development Connections
Missy joined the group as a much smaller business than she is now, and credits the advice, connections and education she received from AWC for much of that growth. Now Missy spends a great deal of time telling the stories of other contractor members on her Social Media channels, helping to promote the Association and member businesses too.
Barb's vision for the future of AWC is to grow its educational offerings by building out their own online academy. She's also been directed by their Board of Directors to begin her own succession planning at least two years before she exits. She's learned that exit planning takes time and she's very committed to making sure the Association leadership transitions successfully!
