TAYLOR BOILEAU
Professional Speaker
Meet Taylor
Taylor Boileau is a former construction superintendent, current leadership speaker, and founder of Empower Her 365.
Working in the construction industry, Taylor has experienced firsthand how jobsite culture impacts safety, performance, and team morale. Through her leadership journey, she recognized that culture is not created by policies or posters, it’s created by how leaders show up, speak up, and support the people around them.
Today, Taylor speaks to construction companies, industry groups, and leadership teams about the real impact of culture on the jobsite. Her sessions combine practical leadership tools, real-world stories from the field, and honest conversations about accountability, communication, and trust.
Taylor’s mission is simple: help leaders understand the influence they already have and give them the tools to use it intentionally to build stronger teams and safer jobsites.
Absolutely Captivating
Taylor brings an honest and practical voice to leadership conversations in the construction industry.
Drawing from her experience working on jobsites, she connects with audiences through real stories, relatable challenges, and actionable leadership strategies. Her presentations go beyond inspiration. Giving leaders tools they can immediately apply with their teams.
Audiences walk away with a deeper understanding of how culture spreads on a jobsite and how everyday leadership behaviors shape safety, trust, and performance.
