Ep 84: Paving the way for women in construction with Kelly Cartwright
Description
Construction is a man’s game, right?.....Wrong
There are still industries that have preconceptions about whether men or women are best suited to work in them. And construction is one of them.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
