On today’s episode of Architectette we welcome Bolanle Williams-Olley. Bolanle is CFO and co-owner of Mancini Duffy, a New York based architecture firm. She is also the author of Build Boldly: Chart Your Unique Career Path and Lead with Courage and has founded several non-profits including SheBuildsWaves, SheBuildsLives, SheBuildsMoney, and REACHNigeria. We talk about: - How Bolanle, as a math major, didn’t want to pursue a career in finance, yet ended up as CFO of an architecture firm. - The importance of creating opportunities for yourself, but also how being open to encouragement/ support by mentors and colleagues can transform your career (even if you feel a tinge of imposter syndrome). - We also hear from Bolanle about the importance of transparency, consistent financial monitoring, what tough conversations look like at the C-Suite level, and the benefits of maintaining good relationships with clients. - In the second half of the episode, we cover all things non-architecture! We talk about party planning, Bolanle’s book and her non-profits, work-life balance, and motherhood. >>>Connect with Bolanle:Bolanle's Website: https://www.bolanlewo.com/Mancini Duffy: https://www.manciniduffy.com/SheBuildsMoney: https://www.shebuildsmoney.com/REACHNigeria: https://www.reach-initiative.org/where-we-work/nigeria/SheBuildsLives: https://shebuildslives.org/SheBuildsWaves: https://www.shebuildswaves.com/Buy Bolanle's Book: https://bookshop.org/shop/Architectette >>>Connect with Architectette:- Website: www.architectette.com (Learn more)- Instagram: @architectette (See more)- Newsletter: www.architectette.com/newsletter (Behind the Scenes Content)- LinkedIn: The Architectette Podcast Page and/or Caitlin Brady>>>Support Architectette by leaving us a rating and review!>>>Music by AlexGrohl from Pixabay.
