Practicing With Intent with Anthia Wong

Anthia Wong is a Team Lead and Project Manager with the interior
and architecture firm FORGE, where she works on a wide range
of commercial, interior, and tenant improvement projects. She
focuses much of her time on relationship building and fostering
the lines of communication externally with clients, as well as
internally within the firm. Her underlying passion of wanting to
help people lent well to elevate her to a position that requires
making sure that client expectations are being met while
nurturing internal teams to make sure members have the tools they
need to achieve success.


In this episode, Anthia shares with me her journey from taking a
watercolor class in community college, to studying architecture
at California College of the Arts, to her current role as a Team
Lead at FORGE. We also discuss whether or not leadership skills
are innate or can be learned, why working on tenant improvement
projects can be a great experience for people fresh out of
school, and how being a project manager is kind of like being a
mom.
