Meet the 2007 rising leaders

David Downs

The Rising Leaders Institute (RLI), supported by a grant from the Builders Exchange Foundation, is an intensive, 14-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.

Rising Leader: David Downs

Company: George J. Igel & Co., Inc.

Title: Chief Estimator

Years in Construction Industry: 16

Education: Bachelor’s Degree from Miami University

Rising Leader Comments: It has been a privilege to be a part of the Rising Leaders program.  It’s important to take a step out of the daily grind to study new strategies to make myself a better manager.  I would recommend the program for both the curriculum and the networking we do within the group.

Participants in the Rising Leaders Institute are required to have a champion from their company, a manager who acts as their mentor throughout the program.  Downs’ mentor is John Igel, president of George J. Igel & Co., Inc.
