AIA CES Workshops
Construction may be built on bricks and blueprints, but success on the jobsite often hinges on something less tangible: emotional intelligence (EQ). This interactive workshop explores how self-awareness, empathy, and communication skills can improve team dynamics, reduce conflict, and boost project performance. Tailored for construction professionals, this session offers real-world examples and practical tools to help participants lead more effectively, collaborate more smoothly, and adapt to the people challenges that come with every build.
