he work comes from all angles. For today's female commercial construction executive, that is the job. If it's not store openings, renovations, marketing plans, etc., it is working overtime to manage a sophisticated work/life balance. And if you ask any of the attendees of the 2018 Women’s Retreat in Buffalo they'll tell you that the road ahead is filled with long work days, burgeoning time constraints and promise. The Retreat, held in the first week of August at The Hyatt Regency in downtown Buffalo, included some of the industry leading female executives across the retail, restaurant and hospitality sectors. The three-day event, sponsored by Commercial Construction & Renovation, offered a series of business meetings and networking events, including a Niagara Falls boat tour and jet boat ride on the river rapids. Following is a wrap up of the Friday afternoon roundtable, where attendees discussed a number of industry-related topics. This is the first in a two-part series, which will conclude in the November/ December issue of Commercial Construction & Renovation.
