Congratulations to our Founder and Past President, Leon Friesen, on being recognized as one of five recipients of The Regina 25 Mentor Award.
For 37 years, Leon has poured his knowledge, time, and leadership into Westridge, not because he had to, but because mentoring others is simply who he is.
His impact reaches far beyond a single individual. It lives in the apprentices who became journeypersons, the coordinators who became project managers, the employees who became shareholders, and in the culture of trust, growth, and opportunity that defines Westridge today.
Leon’s mentorship has shaped countless careers and left a lasting mark on our company, our people, and our community.
This recognition is incredibly well deserved, and we’re proud to see Leon celebrated for what we have always known - great leaders build more than companies, they build people.
Congratulations, Leon!
