Cheryl McBride, NAWIC Member of the Year
September 28, 2011
The National Association of Women In Construction’s Greater Orlando Chapter awarded its 2010-2011 Member of the Year award on September 17th. This award is given annually to a member who have gone “above and beyond” to represent NAWIC and the Orlando chapter. We are pleased to announce that TRAUNER’s Cheryl McBride was selected as Member of the Year. Cheryl and the chapter’s Rookie of the Year award winner will now be submitted for the regional competition, which will awarded in May.
Building Design + Construction’s “40 Under 40” list highlights 40 of the most remarkable individuals in the architecture, engineering, and construction industries that are under the age of 40. In order to be considered for the list, one must be nominated by submitting a write-up describing the candidate’s strengths and accomplishments. Each nominee is then judged on the following categories: leadership skills, inventiveness, sustained career progress, “people” skills, client relations, academic training, dedication, personal integrity, technical skills, and community outreach. Last year, there were 275 nominations for the list.
Mark was nominated and selected for this list based on his dedication to Trauner and our clients; his industry contributions, including his work on the book Construction Delays, Understanding them Clearly, Analyzing them Correctly, his extensive contributions to AACEI’s Recommended Practice No. 29R-03 for Forensic Schedule Analysis; and his constant desire to better himself and to further his career, among many other things.
