After two successful years, the Builders Exchange is proud to announce the Rising Leaders Institute class of 2009.

The Rising Leaders Institute, 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 in the construction industry. Participants are required to have a champion from their company, a manager who will act as a mentor to the student throughout the program.

The Rising Leaders Institute provides intensive, high level business education and leadership training to the construction industry’s future top managers.  The program features a curriculum developed for the Builders Exchange by The Ohio State University Fisher College of Business.  Sessions are instructed by OSU faculty members along with industry leaders.
