Building Lasting Careers: Why We Stay and How We Thrive

Join WCE Calgary for an evening of candid conversation, mentorship, and connection focused on building lasting careers in the A/E/C industry

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.
