In this episode, we highlight the importance of women supporting women to build a more inclusive construction industry.
We’re joined by Erica Jones, Vice President of MMC Corporation and Founder of On The Rise, a program designed to elevate women in construction through focused leadership workshops. In addition to leading marketing for a $1.2 billion organization, Erica actively champions mentorship, advocacy, and intentional support for women and minorities across the industry.
She shares practical insights on building strong teams, scaling marketing operations during significant company growth, and why lifting others up ultimately strengthens the entire industry.
Her message is simple: advocate for one another, mentor intentionally, and embrace the diverse perspectives that make organizations better.
