Every year, our annual Facts & Stats issue looks at changes and new developments around the state. But this year, the Diversified Marketing Strategies family is welcoming a very special new “development” of our own: Blake Jurczak, who arrived November 3 as a happy, healthy, 9-lb., 7-oz. baby boy. Mama Kristin Jurczak, our Director of Events, is doing just fine.
Director, Business Development Leigh Ann Flora leighann@buildingindiananews.com Director of Advertising Liza Hilliard liza@buildingindiananews.com
It’s the most joyous start to the holiday season that I can imagine – and a bright note on which to begin 2012. Seeing Blake for the first time, I couldn’t help but think of the world he’s going to grow into. So much of what we take for granted today was just fiction when I was growing up. And now a whole new future is being written by visionary entrepreneurs, some of whom are right here in the Hoosier state. Look at some of the winners of the 2011 Indiana Innovation Awards. There’s Precise Path Robotics, an Indianapolis firm that has created the first robotic greens mower for golf courses. How long until mowing our own lawns is a thing of the past? Or Delta Faucet, whose award-winning Touch 20 faucet allows you to turn the water on or off just by tapping anywhere on it. In a couple decades, knobs on sinks may look as archaic as an 8-track player. Times may still be tough now, but that won’t last, and like Blake we still have an amazing journey ahead of us. So to all our readers and supporters, thank you for sharing your time with us this year, have a wonderful holiday season, and we will see you all in 2012. Kind Regards,

Airports Get Federal Funds
BUSINESS BUZZ
Evansville Regional Airport and the South Bend Regional Airport were among 29 facilities nationwide receiving grants from the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Small Community Air Service Development Program in September. Evansville received $500,000 to help it attract additional airlines to serve local passengers. It will be the second grant that the airport has gotten through the program. In 2004, it received a grant which it used to subsidize Cape Air, a regional carrier that offered flights between Evansville and South Bend. Those flights ended in 2008. This time around, the airport is reportedly eyeing better connections to the West Coast and Northeast, and wants to add a larger carrier such as United or US Airways. South Bend Regional Airport was awarded $750,000 to help establish service to Denver. The grant, which was supported by Frontier Airlines, will be matched by $475,000 in airport and local community funds. The airport intends to use the money to establish service to Frontier’s hub in Denver, a process expected to take at least a year.
point, has been named No. 3 on the list. Construction of the new US 421 bridge began this year and is expected to be complete in late 2012. The project features innovative design and construction methods, making it possible for the project to be built years ahead of schedule and millions of dollars under budget. To keep the bridge open to traffic for all but 10 days, a new superstructure is being constructed next to the existing bridge. Using a method called “truss sliding,” the new 2,400-foot-long steel truss and road deck eventually will be slid into place on the existing bridge piers, which are being rehabilitated and reused. During this process, traffic will be allowed to continue on the existing bridge until the new deck is ready. The length of the new bridge from the center of the south abutment to the center of the north abutment will be 3,117 feet.

STATE OF THE INDUSTRY
The Phantom
Issue
Proponents of “right to work” legislation are targeting a problem that doesn’t exist. By Dewey Pearman, Executive Director, Construction Advancement Foundation
A
cross the country as well as here in Indiana, 2011 was a difficult year for union construction trades. In addition to facing employment challenges due to a weak economy and a glut of existing residential, commercial and industrial space, unions also suddenly found themselves under attack by forces alleging that they were responsible for state and national economic woes. Events in Wisconsin garnered the most national attention, but no one in Indiana will soon forget how the introduction of so-called “right to work” legislation nearly scuttled the entire 2011 session of the General Assembly. In the end, five weeks were lost over the issue, and many pieces of legislation that were rushed into law in the Assembly’s final frantic days turned out to contain embarrassing errors, including one that accidentally eliminated the state’s largest agency, the Family and Social Services Administration. The agency was quickly restored by an executive order from Governor Daniels, but this and other gaffes only served to illustrate that 2011 was not the Assembly’s finest hour. I raise this point not as a slap to our hardworking state legislators, but as a caution to them, because “right to work” legislation is almost certain to make a return appearance in the next session. And 26
if it is not handled more carefully, we are likely to see equally poor results. One thing that perplexes me about the “right to work” debate is exactly how such legislation would operate to drive more jobs and economic development to Indiana. This is a common argument made by its proponents. For example, in an appearance before the Indiana General Assembly Interim Study Committee on Employment Issues in October, business leaders from Northeast Indiana “testified that current law makes Northeast Indiana unattractive to prospective employers and restricts household incomes,” according to a press release from The Regional Chamber of Northeast Indiana. The trouble is that recent events don’t provide much support for that argument. If the lack of a “right to work” law restricts incomes, how did Indiana rank 8th in the nation in 2010 in personal income growth? If the state is unattractive
to businesses without a “right to work” law, how did Indiana post the ninth-largest percentage increase in jobs that year? And what are we to make of the 123 companies who worked with the Indiana Economic Development Corporation in the first six months of 2011 and committed to creating more than 11,000 jobs? The union boogeyman doesn’t appear to have scared them off. Perhaps that’s because they are aware that, unfortunately, unionized workers make up only a small portion of the total Indiana workforce. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), just 279,000 Indiana workers were members of a union, which is fewer than 11 percent of all Hoosier workers. Even including the 34,000 other workers who are not union members, but are represented by a union on their main job, that figure rises to just 12.2 percent. In short, barely more than one in 10 Indiana workers are union.

100 = National Average
More than 128 107 to 128 101 to 106 83 to 100 59 to 82 Less than 59
That’s consistent with the nation at large, where just 11.9 percent of workers are unionized and another 1.2 percent are not union members, but represented by one. Now, if union members were concentrated in one or two key industries that were vital to the future of Indiana, perhaps a case could be made that this would deter businesses from coming to, or expanding in, the state. But again, this isn’t the case. The latest figures from the BLS do not include state-level breakdowns, but nationally union representation in private industries rarely cracks double-digits. For Indiana today, key industry sectors include manufacturing and logistics. As of 2010, just 10.7 percent of manufacturing workers were union workers, and fewer than one in 20 transportation workers were unionized. Once upon a time, companies
might have been leery of union workers because of the potential for costly strikes. But work stoppages are vanishingly rare events these days. In 2010, there were a grand total of 11 work stoppages nationwide. The percent of estimated working time that these stoppages cost was so negligible that the BLS didn’t even bother to calculate beyond “less than 0.005 percent.” In fact, the percent of lost work time hasn’t risen above 0.01 percent for the past 10 years. Given all of this, it becomes easy to see why companies continue to invest in Indiana despite it not being a “right to work” state. And the truth is, not only are they not being chased away by the unions, but rather a strong union workforce can actually be an asset to business. We’ll examine that dimension of the issue in a future issue of Building Indiana.

FACTS AND STATS 2011 Indiana continues to invest in its future, attract new business and refocus its traditional strengths on 21st century industries.
T
hough the overall national and global economies struggled in 2011, a defiant Indiana continued to thumb its nose at the recession with aggressive job attraction efforts and investments in its future. Perhaps none was as visible as the opening of the JW Marriott Indianapolis and the expansion of the nearby Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis. Combined with other recent projects like the new terminal at the Indianapolis International Airport and Lucas Oil Stadium, the Marriott and Convention Center represented the culmination of $3 billion in investment in Central Indiana. Lower on the radar but no less important was the quickening pace of new business development in 2011. Midway through the year, the Indiana Economic Development Corporation reported that the state was on pace to equal or exceed its 2010 results, when the agency worked with 200 companies to secure more than 23,000 new job commitments. Through June of 2011, 123 companies had committed to creating another 11,000 jobs in the Hoosier State. Among those companies was Fronius USA, the world’s fourth-largest solar inverter producer, whose agreement to bring its corporate headquarters and manufacturing facility to Portage marked the 1,000th www.buildingindiananews.com www.buildingindiananews.com
new business establishment or expansion completed by the IEDC since its inception in 2005. The deal was one of the largest announced in terms of jobs, with a projected 512 new positions by 2016. As well as attracting new
technology companies like Fronius, Indiana also continues to be a global leader in life sciences. That industry now has a $44 billion impact on the state’s economy, according to the latest research from BioCrossroads. Indiana trails only Cali-
fornia and Texas in terms of life sciences exports, has the nation’s third-highest life sciences employment concentration and has recorded a 21 percent growth in life sciences jobs since 2002. That growth is expected to continue thanks to a broad network of existing companies and university resources. Indiana is building on traditional strengths, like manufacturing, as well. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the manufacturing sector was key to Indiana’s third-best-inthe-nation Gross Domestic Product growth in 2010, and a variety of steps were taken in 2011 to position Hoosier manufacturing for the future. Among these was the establishment of the Indiana Aerospace and Defense Council, an industry forum designed to grow the state’s multi-billion-dollar defense industry; and the Indiana Automotive Council, which is focused on Indiana’s $9 billion auto industry.

Philanthropic gift given by Sidney and Lois Eskenazi to support the Wishard Hospital project in Indianapolis in 2011. In recognition of the gift, both the hospital and health system will adopt the Eskenazi name by 2014. The gift is one of the largest ever made to a public hospital in the U.S. Public hospital giving is so rare that organizations tracking philanthropy’s biggest gifts don’t keep a list of such donations. The largest is thought to be a $50 million pledge grant to Parkland Health & Hospital Systems in Dallas in 2008.

The Last Word Women Make You Better Gender diversity in the workplace has been shown to boost profits and improve decision-making. By Melanie Morgan Dunajeski, Attorney, Drewry Simmons Vornehm, LLP
I
f you could do one thing to increase your company’s profitability, improve the quality of decisionmaking on your teams, and access a previously untapped stream of business contacts and referrals, would you do it? Recent studies from leading institutions including the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Carnegie Mellon and Pepperdine University may point to one solution. Hire women. Train women. Promote women. Elect women to your Boards of Directors. Female employment in the construction industry has historically been lower than other segments of the economy. U.S. Census statistics cited by the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC) suggest that although female construction employment is growing, the workforce in the construction sector was comprised of 90.4 percent men and only 9.6 percent women as of 2006. Even setting aside the frequently used argument that some physical barriers exist to women in the heaviest of general construction labor, how do we explain the fact that the same disparity exists at the professional and managerial level? The better question is how much does this disparity impact the bottom line? Consider the MIT/Carnegie Mellon study of collective intelligence alluded to above. Subjects were given standardized
intelligence tests and then assigned randomly to teams. The teams were given tasks including brainstorming, decision making, visual puzzles, and complex problem solving. Based on their performance, “group” intelligence scores were calculated. More Women, More Success Conventional wisdom would lead one to surmise that the teams with the higher
The 25 best firms for women outperformed industry medians by whopping margins, whether calculated by revenue, assets, or equity. - The European Project on Equal Pay, 2001 IQ individuals would earn higher “group” intelligence scores, but the researchers found that “group intelligence” had relatively little to do with the individual intelligence of the group members. Their unconventional (and unexpected) findings were that the teams that scored much higher were the teams that had more women! As Thomas Malone, one of the study’s authors concluded, “Having a bunch of smart people in a group doesn’t necessarily make the group smart.” Other studies conducted throughout
the last decade tracked the profitability of Fortune 500 companies and found similarly strong correlation between profitability and having high-level female executives. Pepperdine University Professor Roy D. Adler conducted a massive study with data extending over a 22-year period. The first study in 2001 (The European Project on Equal Pay) concluded that the 25 best firms for women outperformed industry medians by whopping margins, whether calculated by revenue, assets, or equity. Four subsequent studies replicated these results. A fifth study conducted in 2008 further honed the research criteria to eliminate possible biases in the data, but the results showed the same correlation between having high-level women in the mix and higher profitability. Diversity Improves a Company These thought-provoking studies add one more thread to the whole cloth of gender diversity in the construction industry. Making better decisions, earning more money, spreading the reach of your business to previously untapped markets through woman-to-woman networks – it all makes sense in an industry where women comprise less than 10 percent of the workforce and where slim margins make the difference between survival and success. So what’s holding you back?
