*Salutogenic: focusing on factors that support human health and well-being, rather than on factors that cause ill health

1. Smart construction and digital design.

2. Low carbon and sustainable construction.

3. Improved trade performance.

Success in these priority areas depends on having a skilled, motivated and diverse workforce

THREAT: lack of gender diversity

2. Organization has a workforce with a maximum 5 percent deviationfrom a gender-balanced workforce.

3. Organization has a maximum 10 percent deviation from a gender-balanced management and senior leadership staff.

"Going social" has huge potential for helping women leaders elevate their own voices, add fresh thinking to important conversations, and build trusted community with an impact that makes a world of business difference. Mark my words.
