On the evening of Thursday August 8th, SEAONC SE3 Mentorship team hosted its first ever Building Industry Speed Mentoring Event in San Francisco.  A group of structural engineers, geotechnical engineers, architects and general contractors were invited to participate as mentors to provide a collaborative and holistic perspective on how to work collaboratively to deliver a successful project. 

This event gave engineering professionals and students an opportunity to learn and grow from industry professionals’ knowledge and accomplishments. We received positive feedback from all who participated in the mentoring sessions. At the end of the evening, several mentors commented on how much fun they had in their groups, and how much they learned from their discussions with their co-mentors and mentee participants.

The SE3 mentorship team, led by Brenna Marcoux, Sarah Sullivan, and Steve Earl, would like to thank HOK-SF for graciously hosting the event and all of the mentor and mentee participants for attending the event and providing their feedback to ensure continued conversations about career advancement and improvements to the workplace culture in the profession.
