WELL Executive: Up close with Brendan Owens
An IWBI Webcast Series, sponsored by Daikin
Brendan Owens has been a singular catalyst for market transformation through his longtime role as chief developer of LEED. He’s also managed some of the largest real estate portfolios on the planet, as the former Chief Sustainability Officer for the U.S. Department of Defense, overseeing more than 500,000 buildings, 26 million acres of land and housing for over 2 million service members. Now, as Chief Sustainability Officer at HKS, Brendan continues to scale efforts that address building performance and human performance through design.
In this installment of the WELL Executive series, IWBI President and CEO Rachel Hodgdon sits down with her longtime friend to discuss his career evolution and the leadership lessons he’s learned from stints in the non-profit sector, consulting, at the Pentagon and in the private sector.
The WELL Executive webcast series showcases leaders from the IWBI Governance Council, exploring how they take care of their people, their stakeholders and customers and, most importantly, how they take care of themselves. This series is proudly sponsored by Daikin, leading innovation in heating, air conditioning and ventilation technology for over 100 years, whose generous support makes this interview possible.
