An executive in the transport and infrastructure industry, Michelle Pourciau is the former director of the city of Baltimore’s Department of Transportation. A resident of Washington, D.C., Michelle Pourciau supports Women’s Transportation Seminar International (WTS).
WTS is dedicated to advancing the future of transportation through the empowerment of women in the industry. The organization holds an annual leadership training event (open to both men and women) to prepare industry practitioners for leadership in the changing field of global transport.
The 2019 WTS Leadership program was held from October 1 to 5 in Washington, D.C. The program had two training modules, the first for mid-level managers and the second for executives. Training for mid-level managers focused on helping them understand transportation industry trends, learn from industry innovators, and develop the skills necessary for career advancement.
Training for executives was focused on facilitating peer-to-peer research-based industry discussions, as well as providing insight on media outreach beneficial to driving favorable transport policy. In addition, at both modules, participants completed 360 degree assessments of themselves, gaining a deeper understanding of their leadership styles. The training was facilitated by Denis Rabius, president of Rabius Consulting, a group that creates industry-specific organizational development programs.
