Roundtable: Forging a Team of Leaders
Leadership is an essential component of entrepreneurship – we have to inspire others to follow us (and hire us!) to take on great challenges, even hardships, in pursuit of our goals.
As businesses grow, it also becomes critical to nurture other leaders in our organizations who can lead in areas that are not our strengths, whether that might be sales, marketing, finance, operations, or even management itself.
In this Roundtable, we’ll discuss approaches to nurturing leadership in our teams and how this can increase our ability to scale and take on more complex challenges.

Roundtable Austin: The Sustainable Building Imperative
The built environment contributes up to 42% of global carbon emissions. These emissions take the form of embodied carbon needed to build and repair buildings, and the operational carbon that buildings consume to stay warm or cool, connected, and productive.
As professionals designing and building the places people live, work, and play, we are both part of the problem and part of the solution.
This Roundtable will explore the imperative to build better, more sustainable buildings. Our lives and the future of life on our planet depend on it.

Roundtable: How to Handle Client Relationship Breakdowns
Though we enter new client engagements with energy, enthusiasm, and high hopes for what the future holds, the reality of realizing any built project is that it places stress on the clients, the project collaborators, and on the original vision for the project.
We are wise to counsel clients (before we engage!) that there will be ups and downs, and that this process can often be additive, though it seldom feels like it at the time.
Many projects survive or even flourish in the crucible of getting the work done. Others, for a variety of reasons, do not.

In this Roundtable, we’ll explore how real estate and design rewards and punishes specialization, generalization, and the area in between.
