Leadership development, career growth and opportunities for team members to flourish are high priorities at Granite. Every year, a group of Granite team members take part in an immersive cross-company business training class called Leadership Education and Development (LEAD). Team members have the opportunity to explore all aspects of the business from development to property management while honing their leadership skills. Participants are encouraged to share their knowledge and act as role models to others.
In 2019, with an eye toward the future, Granite launched a new leadership program called Leading Edge Committee (LEC) developing strong leaders to deliver on Granite’s future strategy. Through experiential learning, cross-functional collaboration, and exposure to enterprise-wide strategic planning, structure and culture, Leading Edge is designed to prepare leaders to succeed in higher positions and lead Granite in the future. The program offers meaningful work experiences that link directly to Granite’s strategic priorities, enabling accelerated career progression for team members.
With a firm commitment to fostering diverse and inclusive teams, Granite founded a DEI Council in 2021.
Through our leadership development programs, Granite employees have the opportunity to foster a blend of education, personal growth and core workplace instruction.
