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 of
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.
Votaw’s mentor is Robert Sidwell,
vice president of Smoot Construction.
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.
