Fun Fact:

Recent national studies say company earnings of PWB members are 22% higher than those who are not members. PWB members agree they are more successful business professionals because of the support they receive from peer members. There is access to professional development resources, forums that hone leadership skills, and national recognition within the largest network of residential construction industry professionals also give them a competitive edge by being a member of an HBA.
