Jon GormanSenior Vice President of Strategic Investments
With Power since: 1989
My start in construction: My grandfather and father both worked in the construction business so I was introduced as a young boy over dinner table conversations and occasional Saturday visits to construction sites. After earning bachelor's degrees in finance and engineering, I worked for an architectural firm for a couple years, after which I felt prepared to work for Power Construction. I have ever since.
Words of wisdom for a new person: Be patient, this is a complex industry with a lot to learn. The average new construction project takes 18 to 24 months to complete so it takes years to work on a wide variety of projects, each with its own different materials, means and methods.
Something I'm proud of: The contributions made to both my family and Power Construction.
Fun fact that none of your colleagues would know: I composed music and played guitar in a rock band during and for a few years after college.

Sean GlowaczDirector of Community Development
With Power since: 2018
Project you're most proud of: NM Bronzeville Outpatient Care Center. We worked closely with the project team to make a tremendous impact—creating over $70 million in opportunities for women- and minority-owned firms, 25 opportunities for local tradespeople and pre-apprentice grads, and hosting a dozen schools for site visits to promote construction careers. We even awarded a Power Scholarship to a local student who later interned on the project. This was a great example of our Community Development program in action, with the team getting creative to support local businesses, job seekers, and students.
Words of wisdom for a new person? Take it from someone that switched majors five different times in college and that switched companies four different times before arriving at Power - stay curious and be open to new experiences until you find what you truly enjoy. It took me a long time to find a role that I was truly passionate about. I don't regret any steps that I took along the way that eventually led me here.
What's something you're proud of? I am proud to be raising three amazing, hilarious children.
Why Power? The culture. Power has a strong set of beliefs that their employees truly live by. Those beliefs resonate strongly with me and are at the heart of everything we do as part of our Community Development Program.
Place you'd like to visit: I'm a big fan of road trips. I'd like to make the full Route 66 drive, going from Chicago to Santa Monica, CA.
Favorite Chicago Landmark? The Chicago Water Tower. It's one of the few structures to survive the Great Chicago Fire. One of the water pumps in the Tower is named after my grandfather, Michael Kane, a former Operating Engineer.
