"Extremely engaging and insightful. I have so much to take back and share with others."
— Kenny Booth, Associate Planner - The Watershed Company
Maintaining strong backlog, sustaining profitability, finding and keeping top talent...just some of the priorities that are top-of-mind with today’s A/E/C firm leaders. Of course, knowing what to do is the first step towards being an effective principal. But, actually doing it is often what separates the “real deal” firm leaders from the others.
“Real deal” firm leaders aren’t just born that way. Rather, they develop through proven guidance and experience. They develop by staying close to those who have been there and learning from the seasoned experts. They develop by attending PSMJ’s A/E/C Principals Bootcamp.
For junior and senior firm leaders alike, PSMJ’s A/E/C Principals Bootcamp gives you two intensive days of learning and interaction that equip you with innovative strategies and effective tactics for success.
WHAT MAKES THIS PROGRAM DIFFERENT?
This is unlike any other management course. Beyond being tailored specifically to the A/E/C industry, this intensive two-day program gives you first-hand access to:
- Proven strategies that are working right now for design firm leaders
- Unmatched networking with other current and aspiring A/E/C firm leaders
- Tools, templates, and checklists to ensure action when you return to the office
We’ve built this program around the areas of focus that you have told us are most vital to successful management. Here's a glimpse at what we cover:
But, more than content that is second-to-none, you can rest assured that you are learning from A/E/C management experts who have been there - bringing decades of real-world experience into the classroom. They are passionate teachers who “talk the talk” AND “walk the walk”.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND
This Bootcamp is for anyone who wants to learn the ropes or stay on top of their game as an A/E/C Principal. Past attendees have ranged from newly-minted Associates all the way up to experienced Presidents and CEOs.
