According to surveys, more than 80% of construction professionals would consider leaving their current roles. And 65% would consider pay cuts to move into another career or industry.

In a result-driven construction world, these numbers have some underlying statements. And that’s what we’re going to uncover today.

So, in this week’s episode, Nathan Wood and I sit down with the amazing Dr. Giovanna Brasfield, a.k.a. Dr. G, CEO and Principal at Brasfield & Associates, LLC.

Dr. G is a revolutionary in the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) space with over 18 years of experience in construction, focusing on leadership and DEI program development, training, education, and outreach. She drives organizations to go beyond DEI talk by taking actionable steps to create culturally diverse, equitable, and inclusive workspaces.

As someone who holds dual doctorate degrees and sits on the board of numerous organizations, Dr. G brings a unique level of consultancy to construction by making DEI practices a growth factor for construction companies.

Today, she shares invaluable insights on the most significant barriers and early issues she has seen in the construction industry, why people leave construction, how to deal with burnout, and more.
