Martin Welton’s Post

We are honored to announce our donation of construction services to deliver the Mother Emanuel Foundation’s Emanuel Nine Memorial in downtown Charleston. On the grounds of Mother Emanuel AME Church, the 30,000-square-foot memorial features a Memorial Courtyard, Survivors’ Garden and Contemplation Basin in remembrance of the Emanuel Nine. Learn more on Balfour Beatty’s commitment to building each of the memorial’s thoughtfully-designed components with dignity and respect to provide a sacred place of remembrance and reflection for all: https://bit.ly/3Kg96FY Images courtesy of Handel Architects.

Golf helps build a community. The sport certainly inspires me to grow deeper connections with my local Charlotte and business community. When I met up with Martin Welton and Mickey Faulk back during the President’s Cup, we spoke about what is on the horizon for our industries, especially the demand for an improved customer experience that enhances the lives of every individual we come in contact with. Similar to golf, looking for ways to continuously improve our game (or business) to positively impact our communities is more important than ever. I challenge you to think about: When was the last time you felt as though you were truly a part of a supportive community, and why? Golf and Dexian are two common threads that come to mind for me over the past 25+ years. At the end of the day, we all want to feel a part of something bigger than a title. As humans, we strive for connection, support, and purpose – no matter what we set out to accomplish. #Golf #SalesLeader #Charlotte #QuailHollow #Leadership
