SUMMARY:PAE’s Living Building in Portland\, OR
DESCRIPTION:Blueprints for Leadership: A Series of Workshops (2 LUs)	\n\n			Empowering Architects at Every Stage of Their Career	\n\n\n			\n	\n	\n					\n					\n	\n\n\n			\n	\n	Blueprints for Leadership is a dynamic series of workshops designed to help architects build essential skills in strategic thinking\, business acumen\, and effective management. Led by top experts in their fields\, each session offers premium instruction and meaningful networking opportunities. \n\n\n\n	\n\n	Whether you're just starting out or looking to refine your leadership toolkit\, these sessions are crafted to support your growth. Attend one or attend them all-each workshop stands alone but together forms a comprehensive professional development experience. \n\n\n	\n\n\n			#8 Blueprints for Leadership: How Work Gets Won	\n\n			Branding\, Relationships & Business Development for Architects	\n\n	Great architecture alone doesn’t guarantee that the next project will walk through the door. Successful firms must build strong reputations\, develop meaningful client relationships\, identify opportunities\, and effectively communicate why clients should choose them. \nThis session will explore how branding\, marketing\, and business development work together to help architectural firms win work. Mark Tawara\, FSMPS\, CPSM\, and Jason Takeuchi\, AIA\, NCARB\, NOMA\, will share practical perspectives on how firms build awareness\, develop relationships\, pursue opportunities\, and turn successful projects into repeat clients and referrals. Participants will also examine what influences a client’s selection of an architect—from technical competence and experience to trust\, reputation\, relationships\, and communication. \nMost importantly\, participants will learn that marketing and business development aren’t limited to principals or marketing staff. Architects at every career stage contribute to their firm’s brand and future success through the quality of their work\, the relationships they build\, and the way they represent their firm. \nThings to be covered during this presentation: \n\nUnderstand the distinct but interconnected roles of branding\, marketing\, and business development in architectural practice.\nExplore how clients select architects and the tangible and intangible factors that influence their decisions.\nUnderstand the business development cycle\, from building awareness and relationships to identifying opportunities\, winning work\, delivering exceptional service\, and generating repeat business and referrals.\nIdentify practical ways architects can contribute to marketing and business development at any stage of their career\, even if they are not directly responsible for selling or pursuing work.\n\n\n\n			Welcome Speakers	\n\n	Mark Tawara\, FSMPS\, CPSM\, Honorary Affiliate of AIA Honolulu \n\n\n\n			\n	\n	\n					\n					\n	\n\n\n			\n	\n	Mark Tawara\, FSMPS\, CPSM\, is Principal and Co-Owner of Manageability\, a Hawaii-based management and marketing consulting firm serving organizations and businesses throughout the built environment.

SUMMARY:PABD: Hiring the Next Generation of Built Environment Talent
DESCRIPTION:AIA Honolulu invites you to a lunchtime talk with one of the founders of Pacific Academy of Building Design (PABD)-Hawaii’s newest design school. \nIt’s an excellent opportunity for firm leaders and hiring managers to understand the competencies of those who complete the PABD program and consider how they might fit into your team’s needs. \nIf you’re involved in hiring\, especially for entry-level positions or internships\, this is a chance to learn what kind of training and experience PABD students are getting\, and how that compares to more traditional university or community college routes. Bring your questions-we’ll talk about skills\, expectations\, and what firms should know as these grads enter the job market. \nLiza Lockard\, M.Arch\, PhD\nNCIDQ I ASID I IIDA I IDEC I LEED I SEED \n				\n	Dr. Elizabeth ‘Liza’ Lockard is Co-Founder and Program Director of PABD. Formerly\, Dr. Lockard was a tenured Professor at Chaminade University in Honolulu–where she taught Environmental + Interior Design for 11 years–and an Assistant Professor at University of Hawai’i School of Architecture. \nVIEW CV\n	As a passionate educator with experience in CIDA/NAAB/WASC accreditations\, as well as in curriculum development and core competency assessment\, she brings vast knowledge and in-depth insights in forging a new direction for professional design education. \nDr. Lockard has a master’s degree in Architecture from Yale University and received her PhD in Futures Studies at the University of Hawai’i at Manoa. She is the author of the book titled\, Human Migration to Space: Alternative Technological Approaches for Long-Term Adaptation to Extraterrestrial Environments\, which was published by Springer as part of their Outstanding Doctoral Research series.
