The Steel Erectors Association of America will hold its 46th Annual Convention and Trade Show April 25-27, in Greensboro, N.C., at the Grandover Resort and Conference Center. Headlining the speaker program is Brent Darnell, award winning Emotional Intelligence expert for the construction industry. Darnell approaches common industry leadership problems with humor and insight. He explains: “In the construction industry, many people have excellent technical skills, but get off track with people, relationship, communication, and teamwork skills.” Awareness of this “softer side” of construction, helps contractors attract and retain the best people, create safety programs that actually work, and increase performance.
