In an industry defined by what we create, it's the people who lead that make good things great.

This is Get the Knack, a podcast by the National Academy of Construction, where we connect you with insights from experienced industry leaders to develop your skills and experience and help you achieve your fullest career potential.

We have Cal Beyer, who became a member of NAC in 2025. and Sonia Bowman, who is the Executive Director for the Construction Industry Alliance for Suicide Prevention and has the initials CIASP.

Anyway, I wanted to work through a little bit of a format, just beginning with some background.

Then we'll do some introductions because I think setting the scene and the foundation for this series of podcasts is really important.

And then we'll talk about the organization, CIASP, and hear a lot more about how it was formed, why it was formed, how you guys can find out more about it, get involved.

And then we'll close with some leadership implications, which I think will be important for anybody in our industry or wanting to join our industry to understand how they can show up differently based on the things they learned today.
