Meet the 2008 Rising Leaders Nick Locallo Company: Turner Construction Company Title: Project Engineer Years in Construction Industry:  8 Rising Leader Comments:  “I am looking forward to learning the business side of construction from industry professionals and the networking opportunities available from meeting the other highly-skilled members of the Rising Leaders program.  I recommend this program to any professional who has a goal of being involved in business development or management due to the focus on leadership, communication, and presentation skills.”

The Rising Leaders Institute (RLI), supported by a grant from the Builders Exchange Foundation, is an intensive, 12-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.

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. Locallo’s mentor is Jim Beitel, project executive with Turner Construction Company.

With a curriculum developed for the Builders Exchange by The Ohio State University Fisher College of Business, the sessions are taught by OSU faculty members.
