The Rising
Leaders Institute (RLI), supported by a grant from the Builders
Exchange Foundation, is an intensive, 12-session program focused on
building management skills and business knowledge of high potential
individuals, and preparing them to serve as the future leaders of
the construction industry.
Participants in
the Rising Leaders Institute are required to have a champion from
their company, a manager who acts as their mentor throughout the
program. Mitchell’s mentor is Greg Palmer, Senior Vice President
with Smoot Construction.
With a
curriculum developed for the Builders Exchange by The Ohio State
University Fisher College of Business, the sessions are taught by
OSU faculty members.
