I first saw Angela Hucker speak at a construction expo in Melbourne, Angela was speaking as a guest on a panel to discuss increasing diversity in construction. I was initially interested due to the synergy with my work however, I was drawn to the passion and intellect Angela was speaking with. At the end of the panel discussion there was time for questions from the large audience, Angela was asked a question that was disrespectful to the content of the discussion. Angela responded with professionalism and grace which epitomised the very discussion, being the change in culture that is needed by the construction industry. The audience applauded enthusiastically to Angela’s response.
Angela’s passion and knowledge of what it means to not only work with people in construction but having lived the lifestyle, shines through with her authenticity in speaking. Her words clearly come direct from the heart and genuine compassion and empathy to help those around her and who look up to her for guidance. Seeing Angela speak was not only insightful but inspiring.
You were absolutely brilliant, the audience was right with you and felt the emotion behind your words and stories. I feel very privileged to have been there and admire your courage to speak up.
