C-Suite Unplugged: Trevor Haynes, Chairman & CEO of Black Diamond Group

Update: 2025-11-18

Description

BCA President Adam Legge is joined by Trevor Haynes, Chairman and CEO of Black Diamond Group, for an inspiring conversation on C-Suite Unplugged.

Black Diamond Group is one of North America's leading providers of modular space and workforce accommodation solutions. As Chairman and CEO, Trevor offers a rare inside look at what it takes to lead a company that builds the spaces where people live, learn, and work—including what a typical day looks like in his role and how he approaches decision-making at scale.

He also reflects on the journey that led him here, from a childhood spent moving across Canada to earning his first paycheque at 13, sharing the early lessons that shaped his resilience, work ethic, and entrepreneurial drive.

Together, Adam and Trevor explore what it takes to build and sustain a company through change, the importance of creating opportunities for the next generation, and the leadership insights gained from decades in Alberta's business community.

This episode offers a grounded and optimistic look at what it means to build something lasting—and to leave things better than you found them.
