O2O Ep. 61 BL Companies











Host Jesse Tyler is joined by three great co-owners at 100% ESOP BL Companies, Breton Boudreaux, Director of Recruitment and Talent Management, Jennifer Huffmire, P.E., Senior Engineer, Donald A. Smith, PLS, Senior Project Manager.


Founded in 1986 as a small transportation planning and civil engineering firm, BL Companies has grown to become a leading multi-discipline firm sought after for its quality, creativity, and expertise in producing successful outcomes. They are dedicated to total client satisfaction. Its success is founded in its employee-owners and a culture that inspires, challenges, and insists on nothing short of professional excellence.


Each guest on the Owner to Owner Podcast shares personal insights on what ownership means to them; how they describe ownership when talking to family, friends, and strangers; three words they use to describe employee ownership; their EO A-ha moments; and why anyone seeking work should consider a career at BL Companies.


The goal of this podcast is to have owner-to-owner discussions about a wide range of ownership experiences and culture topics, and to bring more insight into the individual ownership experience.


The Owner to Owner Podcast is produced by Bret Keisling for the EO Podcast Network.
