Be conscientious, compassionate, thoughtful, and kind.
A Great Leader Builds Up Leaders
In a rapidly evolving workplace, strong leadership is about creating space for people to step forward, contribute fully, and grow—whether or not a leader is in the room. Leadership at all levels is a defining part of Mortenson’s culture, shaping how teams show up, support one another, and take ownership every day.
Creating Culture
Mortenson creates a culture where doing the right thing for our people, our customers, and our partners is simply how work gets done. We invest in our people because they are the foundation of our success. Through integrity and shared accountability, we foster an environment where people and ideas are empowered to shape what comes next.
Opportunity for Impact
We see every project as a chance to make a difference for our customers, their businesses, and the communities they serve. Our approach is grounded in thoughtful partnership and humble professionalism, experienced throughout the entire project journey. As we deliberately evolve into new markets, product types, and services, our continued growth fuels innovation and opens the door to far‑reaching impact.
PERSONAL PASSIONS
Being a good coach and mentor is deeply important to me. I’m motivated by the belief that each generation should inherit something better than the one before it. I find great satisfaction in helping pass along values like hard work, kindness, generosity, determination, and teamwork, while also encouraging self‑confidence, self‑reliance, responsibility, resilience, and a belief in oneself.
