Our associate architect Martin Houle was selected by his Alma Mater, the University of Montréal, to share his experience as a mentee and mentor as part of their new mentoring program.

“Mentoring for me is the art of coaching and valuing, while being transparent. The bond of trust is crucial, and that’s why there must be a certain level of connection from the first meetings.
