What are the assumption in architectural practice that are holding it back? I’ll go first with three of my favourites: → Every architectural brief should be answered with a building. → The way we’ve always practiced is the way we should continue to. → That more (typologies, projects, status) is more. What other assumptions might architects let go of? #workshops #coaching #architects #architecture #architecturalpractice #leadership

Is professional isolation holding back innovation in architecture? Architects aren't alone in isolating themselves from external voices. And this insular approach can lead to stagnation and missed opportunities. By introducing new ways of seeing and thinking, architects can: → Extend our professional networks → Create goodwill → Open up unexpected opportunities → Gain valuable insights into our strengths and weaknesses How can we encourage more cross-pollination of ideas between architecture and other fields? #coaching #architects #architecture #architecturalpractice #leadership

Architects, is your practice on fear or opportunity? "What are you not doing, in fear it might not work?" Architecture practice requires courage. It's easy to follow the well-worn path. But innovation and adaptability comes from a willingness to be different. Which assumptions do you need to question and test? What’s the change in your practice you’re avoiding out of fear? #workshops #coaching #architects #architecture #architecturalpractice #leadership

Many architecture practices are hurting right now. There’s uncertainty in the economy, flowing into the building industry, and costs just keep going up. Imagine if you already had the solution? You do. It's you and your team. The way you lead your business through practice challenges is the key to success. The irony is it's skills we’re not taught in architecture school. The thing we need most right now is skills you need to learn elsewhere. That's where Unmeasured can help. I teach architects how to be great leaders of practice. Do your practice, your team and yourself a service, and develop your human skills for a more durable practice. Introducing The Culture of Practice.

Hiding in the middle keeps you safe. It’s comfortable It’s also a bad idea. By hiding in the middle, you’re surround and protected in the middle of the majority. You’re hidden and unexposed. “I want to stay as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can’t see from the center.” - Kurt Vonnegut The edge can be uncomfortable. Sometimes you need to feel uncomfortable before you move. #workshops #coaching #architects #architecture #architecturalpractice #leadership

It’s the architect's climate crisis dilemma… Up until… around about now… they've been part of the problem. The construction industry's substantial environmental impact? They helped design it. But they're now uniquely positioned to lead the solution. From embodied carbon assessments to adaptive reuse strategies to climate adaptation, architects are rethinking their role in creating a sustainable built environment. The future is for those who can negotiate elegant design solutions with planetary responsibility. #workshops #coaching #architects #architecture #architecturalpractice #leadership
