Episode 16: The View from the Other Side | What It’s Like to Work for a Woman in Construction
In this episode of Wonder Women Who Build, host Carrie Moreau sits down with Derrick Vittitow, Robert Bonesteel, and Eliot Grime for an honest and insightful conversation about what it’s really like to work for a woman in the construction and roofing industry.
This episode shifts the perspective.
Instead of hearing from women navigating male-dominated spaces, you’ll hear directly from the men who work alongside a female leader every day. From first impressions to real job site experiences, this conversation explores gender bias, leadership, trust, and what truly matters when building a strong and successful team.
Together, they share how their perspectives have evolved, what they have learned working in a woman-led company, and why mutual respect and trust matter more than anything else.
If you are a woman in construction, a business owner, or part of a growing team, this episode offers real insight into what it takes to build credibility, earn respect, and lead with confidence.
In this episode, you will learn:
• How gender bias shows up in business and on job sites
• How to handle skepticism and shift perceptions through competence
• The unique strengths women bring to leadership roles
• How men can support and thrive in woman-led businesses
This conversation goes beyond construction. It is about partnership, perspective, and building something bigger together.
