I&#8217;ve attended and spoken at dozens of architecture conferences.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what they have in common:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>They&#8217;re too one-sided.<\/strong> There&#8217;s way too much lecturing from-the-stage and not enough interaction amongst all the amazing and powerful people in the room.<\/li>\n<li><strong>They don&#8217;t focus on the future.\u00a0<\/strong> So many conferences don&#8217;t seem to think\u00a0<em>at all<\/em> about the next generation of our profession.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t<ul>\n<li><strong>They don&#8217;t focus on serving our community. <\/strong>The focus is always on the industry&#8217;s new shiny window, or worse, who among us can donate the most money, instead of harnessing the power of the minds of the audience to see how we can serve our profession and our communities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is our profession, we\u2019re inheriting it. Things are moving at a faster pace than ever before, and more Young Architects are moving into positions of power. Are you equipped for long-term success? You can be.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s why I want you to join us in August, so we can talk about how to make the next generation of Architects the most successful.<\/p>\n\t\n\t\t<div
