Who Benefits When We Build? The Social and Economic Impact of Construction

Episode notes

Today, we’re spotlighting a leader who has reimagined what construction can be - not just by building a profitable business but building people who transform the communities where they live, work, and play. Cornelius Griggs, President and CEO of GMA Construction Group. So today, we’re asking some big questions: What is the missing link between solving the labor shortage and traditional recruitment practices in construction? What impact does earning a living wage have on the people and communities construction touches? What does building a profitable business with purpose look like for construction? Let’s rethink what it means to build - not just the physical infrastructure of our cities, but the social infrastructure of our communities that allows people to thrive.
