About the Show:
In this episode of the podcast, we sit down with Ellen Bensky, Partner, CEO, and CFO at Turner Fleischer Architects, Inc., based in Toronto, Canada. Ellen has more than 30 years of experience working in the Design Industry. Turner Fleischer is an Architectural firm that focuses on Commercial, Hospitality, Industrial, Institutional, Interior, Mixed-Use, Planning, and Residential.
One of the stories that we talked about on the podcast is how Bensky broke into the industry almost by accident. She started on the Admin team and eventually worked her way through the ranks and ascended to the role of CEO even though she wasn’t a licensed Architect or traditional Design Professional.
Ellen’s story is a shining example for all of those hard-working professionals in Design Firms that don’t have a “P.E. or AIA” behind their names. She has forged a path as a leader who didn’t take “No,” for an answer.
This episode is chock-full of information, anecdotal and inspirational stories, and examples of cross-generational development between the Greens and the Grays - you will have to listen to the podcast to understand the reference. You can thank us later.
All of these great ideas from Ellen on this episode of the Encourage Build Grow Podcast.
