How can businesses in the construction and development industry balance growth and profitability with a genuine commitment to social and environmental responsibility? In today’s episode, Nathan Stuck sits down with Jon Williams, President and CEO of W&A Engineering and the Better Communities Collaborative.

Jon shares the journey that shaped his commitment to community service, from working in a family grocery store to starting a small landscaping company. W&A Engineering is now a multidisciplinary firm with offices across the United States.

We’ll hear how Jon navigates generational differences by creating a work environment that blends traditional values with evolving perspectives, the decision to pursue B Corp certification, and his mission to not only overcome negative perceptions of the development industry, but influence others to pursue more conscious design and community impact.

Stay tuned to hear practical steps that you can take to create lasting, positive change in the communities you impact.
