Values

Leadership

WCOE members are all leaders in their businesses, communities and within the organization. We believe leaders should be purposeful and committed. Leaders must continually communicate and reinforce direction in order to succeed in the ever-changing environment of the 21st Century. Leaders accept responsibility for their actions and demand integrity and professionalism of themselves, their peers and their co-workers. 

Financial Stability, Growth, and Responsibility

WCOE will strategically manage its finances with responsibility and accountability, including getting the most value for dollars spent. We are committed to effectively managing costs and supporting revenue enhancing activities beyond membership dues revenues. Without the finances to fund programs and serve members’ needs, WCOE will cease to be relevant.

Commitment

WCOE is committed to making a dramatic impact on equalizing the playing field for executive women in the construction industry.  Whether it is influencing decisions made by Federal or State regulators, Congressional staff, elected representatives or corporate America, WCOE is the respected collective voice for our members.

Professional and Personal Growth

WCOE is not satisfied with the status quo of women's acceptance within the construction industry. To make an impact, we are committed to promoting women in leadership roles; educating outsiders about the successful role of women in this industry; and creating strong role models, mentors and leaders. WCOE will have made an impact when a distinction no longer exists regarding women in the construction industry.
