A companion guide, not the workshop. Get PSMJ's 5 pillars of executive accountability when it's time to implement your firm's strategic plan.
With so much change all around us, it can be easy to throw up your hands and resign yourself into believing that strategic planning just doesn't work anymore. You can't figure out what you are doing next week or next month…let alone five years from now! In fact, it can be hard to even imagine the impacts of AI, generational change, consolidation, changing political tides, and so much more. So, why even try to plan?
Here's a secret. In the face of so much change, the leadership teams of some of the most successful and fastest-growing AEC firms are getting even more intentional and focused than ever before on strategic thinking and strategic planning. They aren't just taking guesses, they aren't just riding the winds to wherever the firm brings them, and they certainly aren't complaining about the same nagging problems over and over.
Instead, they are capitalizing on change and getting intentional about creating their firm's future.
Designed by PSMJ's AEC strategic planning experts, for AEC CEOs, Principals, and other top firm leaders, this is your exclusive chance to see exactly how PSMJ approaches strategic planning with some of the AEC industry's most successful firms. Packed with real examples, valuable data, and the tools you need for a well-built strategic plan, this is your opportunity to put an end to boring, uninspiring, and ineffective strategic planning.
For AEC CEOs, COOs, Principals, and any firm leader involved in the strategic planning process. Bring your leadership team to get on the same page.
AEC Strategic Planning Workshop delivers the essential tools, processes, and techniques to make sure you create and implement a strategic plan that produces results. PLUS you get the recording of each session for ongoing review and internal training.
Some issues, questions, and challenges that may be holding your firm back are best discussed outside the group setting. That is why your registration includes a completely confidential 45-minute virtual 1:1 consultation with the coach for this program. Bring your most pressing questions about your current strategic plan, your firm's future, or just about anything related to your firm's growth and we'll be sure you don't leave with unanswered questions.
One of the critical success factors of any strategic plan is alignment. This starts with an objective understanding of the firm's current state and where you can make the greatest strides in long-term sustainable growth. PSMJ's Leadership Diagnostic Index is an online survey built from decades of AEC strategic planning experience. It examines key growth drivers such as Strategic Direction, Accountability, Communication, and more in one 30-minute survey. As a workshop registrant, you receive a summary of how your results compare to PSMJ's dataset from hundreds of AEC firm leaders. Register your leadership team for this program and you also see where your team is aligned and where there may be friction.
You may not see the pain points and challenges right away after the workshop. Maybe three months later as you are building out your plan, you encounter an unexpected hurdle when a key rainmaker leaves the firm. Maybe six months later, you land a huge project and everything changes. Maybe nine months later, you are just getting frustrated that things aren't moving faster. We're here to help. Your workshop registration includes up to two hours of support (including email and videoconference accessibility) for one full year after the workshop!
