Construction Leadership Council

The Construction Leadership Council (CLC) was established to fulfill the need to cultivate the next generation of leaders in the construction industry as well as the association both at the local and national levels.

The purpose of the CLC is to act as a conduit for participants to network, exchange ideas about work and the industry, serve local communities and continuing education which includes both professional development and leadership skills.

Activities of the CLC

  • To be an open forum to exchange ideas
  • To be an entry vehicle into AGC to promote new member involvement
  • To foster a strong network among peers
  • To create a foundation for future development of the industry
  • To discuss the most important issues and provide feedback to AGC leadership
  • To provide leadership skills
  • To provide a mentoring program with established officers and committee members
  • To structure AGC and the construction industry for the coming centuries
  • To network with similar organizations in the industry

Starting a Local CLC & Best Practices

To help AGC Chapters that are either considering starting a Construction Leadership Council or already have one but want to change it or see what others are doing, the AGC of America CLC Steering Committee has created a publication of best practices, suggestions and resources for local CLCs.

Thanks to all the AGC Chapter CLC groups that have contributed documents that are posted in the categories below:

Agendas and minutes

Bylaws

Event brochures and fliers

General brochures

Membership applications & nomination forms

Mission statements

Newsletters and articles

Steering committee guidelines

Strategic plans

If your local CLC would like to contribute a document for any of these (or a new) category, please email it to Liz Elvin at elvin@agc.org.

AGC Chapters' Construction Leadership Council Directory

More than half of AGC's 95 chapters have some form of Construction Leadership Council (CLC) group. AGC has compiled a searchable database of the known CLC groups. There are two ways to use the database: search to find a CLC group in a particular state, or search "all" and an additional filter will come up allowing you to search for CLC groups that have particular attributes, such as charging annual dues. There are six filters - as many as all six or as few as one can be used in a single search.
