Next week, I will participate in an AIA California panel discussion on sustainability and firm culture! I am excited to share what we are doing at Lake|Flato and hear about the activities and initiatives others are having success with.
As luck would have it, I will be presenting again to the AIA California membership! I presented just last month on circularity (click here for that recording). This time, I am teaming up with friends from LPA and Orcutt Winslow to discuss sustainability and firm culture!

Description
A firm’s culture can make or break any attempt to change, grow, and evolve. This can be especially true as firms strive for integrated, sustainable, and high-performing design outcomes that span their entire portfolios, not simply a few high-flying projects. This session will take you through some of the common challenges inherent in breaking out of “business as usual” design processes. You’ll also explore examples of strategies that leading firms have used successfully in their quests to meaningfully infuse sustainability throughout their firms and projects.

We presented a similar (but not exactly the same) session at the AIA national conference earlier this year in Washington D.C. (see photo below). Plus, those presentations are not recorded so only the attendees in the room saw our presentation. Fun fact... we facilitated a "choose your own adventure" and only delivered two-thirds of our prepared content. The AIA California presentation will be a streamlined version since we have less time:)
