TRACK 4: PROJECT MANAGEMENT The 10% Problem: Why A/E/C Firms Are Not As Profitable as They Should Be   Don Archibeque, Project Executive and JJ Brantingham, Co-FounderPlanifi▲ |
Your A/E/C firm’s culture isn’t on your website or mission statement, it’s how your employees describe working for you. To counter growing disengagement, “culture” has become the connective tissue that bonds the best people to firms and creates a sustainable competitive advantage, and it’s been what everyone is talking about since we moved to remote workforces. Problem is, a lot of leaders don’t know how to move from talk to action. So what are you doing to define, establish and maintain yours? Straight-talking talent expert Barbara Bruno gives us the candid, tough questions to ask ourselves and other leaders about our culture, why it isn’t attracting the best talent, and may in fact be driving away critical mid-career leaders .
Led by PSMJ Founder and CEO Frank Stasiowski, FAIA, this provocative discussion with fellow A/E/C executives challenges you to shift your thinking about emerging trends with potential to radically reshape your firm.
Last year’s discussion on the death of timesheets was a standing-room only hit…stay tuned to see what we attack this year! NOTE: Admission limited to PSMJ PRO Members. Learn more about PSMJ PRO membership and join now or on-site!
The last 2+ years of accelerated adoption of AI + automation, distributed + hybridized work, and other trends have driven many A/E/C firms to discard legacy processes, and adapt and innovate quickly to an entirely new world. So what’s next? Leading futurist Erica Orange examines the looming impact of macro technological, sociocultural and economic trends to help us expand our vision of the possible -- and develop future-proofed action strategies to capitalize on growth opportunities..

Join your colleagues to celebrate A/E/C firms achieving superior performance with the presentation of PSMJ's Circle of Excellence, Platinum Award, Premier Award for Client Satisfaction, and A/E/C Building a Better World Award.
As firm leaders, we often run from fire to fire, dealing the pressing issues of the day. But how intentional are we to identify and eliminate our key deficiencies, the big-picture structural issues that contribute to sub-optimal firm growth and goal attainment? Barry Barber of 5,500-strong engineering and design powerhouse Kimley-Horn has spent his career challenging the “we’ve always done it this way” mentality, first as Executive Vice President for Human Resources and now as Chairman of the Board. In his powerful keynote address, Barry will reframe our thinking by asking the right questions about our firm’s culture, ownership transition planning, employee and client satisfaction, skilled talent motivation, geographic, market, and client diversity, remote work practices, and much more. Plus we get a candid and revealing insider’s view from the top of one of the most successful (#10 on ENR’s Top 500, 15-time FORTUNE Best Places to Work) design firms as they answer the same questions.
