KCB Boiler Room Podcast – Episode 5: Tiffany LeBlanc

Episode 5 – Tiffany LeBlanc Discusses Company Culture

Company culture and how to make it better is a perennial, ever-changing topic in the Boston build-design community. In December of 2024 we assembled a panel of principles—builder, interior designer, and landscape architect, to go deep on the topic of company culture. Tiffany LeBlanc contributed a lot to the discussion, from her position as the founder of Tiffany LeBlanc Design. With Kevin moderating the conversation, we heard some interesting stories and granular examples of how company culture plays a role in each of their businesses.

Tiffany was a great podcast guest in this follow-up chat. Her combination of high emotional and social intelligence, along with her experience, allows her to be insightful, hilarious, and almost-but-never inappropriate. What a joy to have this conversation with her.

The three moments we asked Tiffany to revisit from the panel discussion—and these were moments we wished she would have said more—were:

What’s your favorite part of company culture? Kevin’s was the camaraderie that happens when “people working together doing hard things and having a good time” and also looks like “people having a taste of each other’s lunch.”

What are the systems in place that you’ve allowed that helps you blend culture with the actual production and work you’re manifesting?

Asking Tiffany to elaborate on what she meant by what she looks for in someone, a “thinking brain.”

Tiffany’s boombox story will bring you back to the twisty gravel roads of Vermont that you didn’t know you needed, with Pure Prairie League’s “Amie” spilling out into the ether, along with the Aiwa shelf system that will leave you looking on Ebay for your own. She has suggested gifting the Boiler Room this system that’s collecting dust on a shelf in Vermont. We’re hoping it will happen!
