Nearly 100 SEA leaders, NCSEA committee chairs, and NCSEA Board Members gathered in suburban Chicago on June 4-6, 2024, for NCSEA Leadership Week, a collaborative event aimed at supporting the profession today and tomorrow.
The first two days focused on the NCSEA Leadership Collaboration, where the Board of Directors and Committee Chairs aligned on initiatives and strategic planning. Discussions emphasized enhancing engagement between committees and their communities to develop valuable tools for practicing structural engineers, ensuring unified leadership.
Following this, the SEA Leadership Retreat provided SEA leaders and NCSEA Delegates with essential knowledge in association management and practical tools for local applications. The event connected SEA leaders from more than 30 SEAs with NCSEA’s committees, highlighting key resources available year-round and encouraging diverse leadership growth.
“Leadership Week is an exceptional opportunity for the NCSEA board, staff, committee chairs, and SEA leaders to come together in person to collaborate and to exchange ideas and resources to collectively propel the profession forward,” said NCSEA Board Member Michelle Ryland, S.E., R.A., who attended the 2024 event. “Together, we can accomplish so much more than we can individually.”
Sponsored by Atlas Tube and MiTek, Leadership Week also featured an evening reception where attendees celebrated NCSEA’s 30th anniversary.
