In the fast-paced, competitive world of architecture, Beth Campbell has succeeded through her dedication to people, integrity and creating solutions to design challenges.
“From talent development with staff, to collaborating with amazing clients, to designing places that enhance people’s lives – I am fortunate to be in constant contact with curious and inspiring people,” said Beth.
With Gensler for 13 years, Beth has served at the Chicago, San Ramon and San Francisco offices. She is now the Director of Workplace and Managing Principal at the Las Vegas office. In this role, Beth works closely with the Regional Leadership Team to build on existing relationships and establish new ones, while continuing to deliver world-class design.
If Beth Campbell could be one person for a day, it would be Meg Whitman, president and chief executive officer of computer giant Hewlett-Packard (HP) who rose to the top of HP after failing to win the California governor’s race in 2010.
“I admire that accomplishment in the face of adversity,” said Beth.
Inspired by how the community of Boston and its visitors pulled together after the recent tragedy, Beth believes in the power of volunteering and the synergy created by people joining together to create change.
“United Way connects those in the community wishing to volunteer with those who are most in need – in particular families and children in need,” explained Beth. “Volunteers usually get more out of what they are doing emotionally and spiritually than the people for which they are volunteering their services.”
Beth decided to get involved with United Way when she learned about the work of the Women’s Leadership Council. She also took the next step and became a member of the Tocqueville Society because it was an opportunity to be a part of something bigger than herself.
“United Way provides a great avenue to give back,” said Beth. “When I give to United Way, I know the money is going to the right place.”
Beth believes that United Way has identified the greatest needs in the community and delivers services to those who need it most.
“Recently they offered free tax preparation for families with incomes under $51,000,” said Beth “The United Way always seems to know what the community needs when they need it.”
