Offsite Construction
& Leadership Series
Bringing industry leaders together for meaningful conversations, stronger connections, and new ideas to create positive change
across construction.
BUILD BETTER RELATIONSHIPS.
LEAD BETTER TEAMS. BECOME MORE OF WHO YOU ARE.
Our Offsite Construction & Leadership Series, powered by Becoming Human Again is a leadership and connection experience created for the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry.
Construction is built on projects, schedules, budgets, materials, and deadlines—but behind every one of them are people. People making decisions. People managing pressure. People navigating conflict. People trying to communicate, lead teams, solve problems, and get the work done. We believe better business begins with better human connection.
Our leadership series is bringing AEC professionals together to develop meaningful industry relationships while exploring a different approach to leadership—one built around awareness, emotional intelligence, communication, and understanding how we show up for ourselves and others.
PEOPLE. PERFORMANCE. PROFITABILITY.
Strong company cultures and strong business performance are connected. When people communicate more effectively, understand expectations, trust one another, and feel that their contribution matters, teams can operate differently. The goal isn't to eliminate mistakes, disagreements, or challenges. Those are part of being human.
The opportunity is learning how to navigate them differently. We want to help AEC companies build environments where people want to come to work, contribute their ideas, take responsibility, solve problems together, and become part of something meaningful. That can create stronger teams, greater efficiency, better decision-making, healthier company cultures, and ultimately more successful businesses.
PEOPLE. PERFORMANCE. PROFITABILITY.
Strong company cultures and strong business performance are connected. When people communicate effectively, trust one another, understand expectations, and know their contributions matter, teams work differently. The goal isn't to eliminate mistakes, disagreements, or challenges—they are part of being human. The opportunity is learning how to navigate them with greater awareness, accountability, and understanding.
The Offsite Construction & Leadership Series powered by Becoming Human Again helps AEC leaders create environments where people want to come to work, contribute their ideas, take responsibility, and solve problems together. When people feel connected to their team and purpose, it can lead to stronger collaboration, better decision-making, greater efficiency, healthier company cultures, and ultimately more successful and profitable businesses.
We also believe meaningful relationships are part of better business. That's why networking is intentionally built into the Becoming Human Again experience. Instead of simply exchanging business cards, you'll have opportunities to connect with people facing similar workforce challenges, project pressures, leadership issues, and business transitions. Listen. Ask questions. Share experiences. Build relationships. You may discover that one conversation can change how you approach your next challenge.
FROM TRANSACTIONAL TO TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP
AEC is naturally transactional—win the project, meet the schedule, manage the budget, solve the problem, and move on to the next challenge. But leadership can be more than completing the transaction. Transformational leadership is about understanding the people behind the outcomes and creating teams that can navigate mistakes, pressure, difficult conversations, change, and uncertainty while continuing to move forward together.
Offsite Construction & Leadership Series creates space to look inward as well as forward. Through practical tools, meaningful conversations, and shared experiences, you'll explore your voice, awareness, communication, triggers, challenges, and how you choose to respond. The goal is to help you recognize patterns, see situations from a different perspective, and become more intentional in the way you lead yourself and others.
Winning isn't only about securing the next project. It can also mean building a team where people trust one another, communicate openly, learn from challenges, and feel empowered to contribute. We want you to leave with stronger AEC relationships, greater self-awareness, and tools you can put into practice immediately. You don't need to become someone else to become a better leader. The opportunity is to become more of yourself.

Audree Grubesic, Speaker & Host
Audree Grubesic helps builders, developers, manufacturers, and investors navigate the transition to modular and offsite construction with strategic clarity, operational insight, and long-term vision. By bridging innovation with real-world execution, she helps organizations scale projects, improve performance, strengthen communities, and create lasting impact.
At the center of her work is a leadership philosophy that has evolved into the Coherence Arc Leadership program—a framework designed to align purpose, people, and performance. Audree believes leadership is not about titles, authority, or being the loudest voice in the room. True leadership is about creating trust, building meaningful relationships, and inspiring others to become their absolute best.
The Coherence Arc Leadership program combines business strategy with compassion, accountability with grace, and vision with humanity. It recognizes that behind every company, project, and achievement are people seeking connection, purpose, growth, and contribution.
Through authentic communication, collaboration, and service, Audree helps individuals and organizations navigate change, strengthen culture, develop resilient teams, and build partnerships that create success for both people and business. Because the strongest organizations are built when we lead with both courage and heart.
Through Audree's transformational five-part leadership series, participants learn practical tools for self-awareness, communication, connection, accountability, and purposeful leadership. These principles are designed not only to improve business outcomes, but to create lasting personal transformation that can change the way people lead, work, and live.
