Hear what disruptive HR leaders from the construction industry had to say about taking three days out their schedule to attend LEAP HR: Construction 2023:

“LEAP HR: Construction made you get involved, network, and interact with your peers.”

“I usually go to conferences, listen to the speakers and don't say very much as I can be a bit of an introvert.

It wasn't uncomfortable and I gained a lot of knowledge whilst connecting with people I wouldn't have if this had been another conference. I am truly looking forward to seeing what next year has to bring. Thank you so much for bringing this conference to my attention.”
