Check out this post about NSPE-CT member Blair Richardson, PE, CEM, who completed NSPE's Emerging Leaders Program this past year! 👏👏

When Blair Richardson was a kid, he wanted to be a farmer. If you asked him why, he would say “there is nothing more rewarding than watching things grow”. As the Director of Commissioning and Energy Service, Blair recognizes the power of people to drive business. This translates to a focus on developing and lifting up those around him to create high-performing teams while cultivating collaborative work environments to drive success. While he might not be a farmer in the traditional sense, he has most certainly found a way to help grow the people around him. https://bit.ly/3ORcl6R

Coming out of the Emerging Leaders Program, Blair Richardson, PE, was able to leverage his honed leadership ability to transition jobs. As the New Director of Commissioning and Energy Services at Colliers Engineering and Design (Collier Project Leaders), he is now responsible for managing a team of professionals, providing a high level of technical leadership, leading business development efforts, and setting regional goals. This new role covers all of Southern New England and supports the North-East and Mid-Atlantic regions.

Colliers is a full-service engineering, architecture, owners project management, and commissioning firm based in Madison, Conn., with more than 57 offices across the country. With more time now dedicated to project management and business development within his organization, he realizes the need for additional leadership and communication skills to satisfy his responsibilities.

Since joining NSPE in 2018, Blair says he is reminded of the engineering profession’s responsibility to protect public safety and educate the public at large on matters of health and safety. He contends, “Participating in the NSPE Emerging Leaders Program will help me better understand the ‘business” of engineering, help build confidence in myself, and enable me to share this knowledge and experience with others.”
