Business Stream - Delivery Part One

The Business of Architecture: Project Managing Art


The business of architecture is often a struggle between the designers who want to design and the managers who want to manage. Astute project delivery planning can turn this clash into a workable dynamic, centered on common goals of quality, responsibility, and service to the client—a way to manage expectations but produce something meaningful. Honing project management to find a balance between artistic achievement and prudent oversight will help businesses make money and strive for excellence.
