Ovabc Next Gen leaders

A network for The next generation of leaders within the construction industry

Our Mission:

Next Gen Leaders (NGL) of the Ohio Valley Chapter
of ABC is a network of young and highly motivated
construction industry professionals that will one day
be leading their organizations.​

Our Vision:

​Next Gen Leaders seek to assist in professional development through fostering strong bonds between
our members. We strive to improve ourselves through training, education and service to our communities
in order to be prepared to lead our organizations, the OVABC, and the construction industry through the
future generations.
So... Why Join?

​With this principle in mind, Next Gen Leaders wants to attract individuals who have been recognized as current and potential leaders of their organizations. The NGL is a place where construction industry professionals can come together to talk, learn and share ideas about their fields of work and the
construction industry as a whole. The NGL seeks to build its membership with individuals who are serious about furthering their network and understanding of the industry. We focus on creating an environment in which all feel welcome. Our membership is consistent. Much of our value relies in being able to form strong relationships through our membership, therefore it is important to all of us that we are consistent with showing up to meetings and social events.
