SEGMENT #2
Launching a new office during a pandemic
BD+C Senior Editor John Caulfield interviews Jason Santeford, AIBC, NCARB, LEED BD+C, who in November 2020 was appointed the first managing director of Gensler's year-old office in Vancouver, B.C. Santeford discusses the challenges of building a team during a pandemic that has kept workers out of the office. He believes, however, that the launch of the new office is “perfect timing” for this market and his company.
