Young Professionals of ECA: 2023 Leadership Conference

The event was held at the Iron Horse Hotel - Milwaukee, WI.

The Young Professionals of ECA had a fantastic time last week in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for our 2023 Leadership Conference!

It was a jam-packed two-day event as the Milwaukee Tool tour kicked off Thursday’s festivities. On Milwaukee's campus, members observed state-of-the-art equipment, innovative strategies, and a sneak peek of new technology coming to the construction industry.

Following the tour, attendees checked in to the Iron Horse Hotel as conference Emcee Sean Samson, founder of Sean Samson Training, LTD., shared invaluable insights on scaling through effective leadership styles and how to harness the different styles for professional growth and organizational success.

The day concluded with a wonderful evening at the MobCraft Taproom, fostering connections over pizza, beer, and games.

Friday was dedicated to education, covering essential topics in the industry. Delving into discussions on productivity, material management, and strategic planning.

We thank our keynote presenters and attendees for making this conference a success!
