This fall, the Builders Exchange will again offer high-level professional development through the BX Executive Leadership Experience (BXLX). Applications for the Class of 2026 are currently being accepted, and the limited number of seats are filling fast.
Monthly class sessions begin Sept. 16 and continue through May 2026. Featuring nationally recognized experts in construction leadership and business development, BXLX topics include:
With last week’s graduation of the Class of 2025, more than 300 industry leaders have now participated, including company presidents, vice presidents, operations managers, project executives and project managers. Who will be your next BXLX graduate?
The remaining seats for the Class of 2026 will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Reserving a spot now will ensure your leader is ready for the first session this fall.
For more information on this construction-specific leadership program or to reserve a seat, contact Deb Murphy.
