HOK Co-CEO and Design Principal Eli Hoisington, AIA, LEED AP, talks with host Brian Jones about his journey to co-CEO of a global architecture firm and how that impacted his view of leadership. Eli speaks generously and candidly about the challenges of balancing leadership and design and what an “interdisciplinary approach” really means to the firm. He also discusses how the firm embraced a global mentorship approach that allows for cross-border mentor-mentee relationships. Noting that at the time of the recording, it's 70 degrees in February in Saint Louis, Eli provides insight on sustainability, explaining that the term needs to expand to include both wellness and equity.
