Why do so many architects love their work but hate their job? The paradox is that many architects are much more skilled at designing spaces than they are at designing their careers, jobs, and organizations. Though they love to design, many architects don't know how to deal with other aspects of their profession: managing projects, budgets, supervisory skills, marketing. In this seminar participants will get help in designing their careers for maximum job satisfaction, learning, and ongoing development, and will get four building blocks essential to designing a satisfying career: 1. Personality profile instruments to help build a strong professional identity. 2. Organizational insights to assess your "fit" with employers 3. Goal-based work plans to clarify new job priorities and outcomes, and design your job for optimum learning from the outset. 4. Interview methods that provide maximum information about employers. Dr. Ronco,(Ph.D.,'80 Course XI) consults to architecture, engineering, and real estate organizations. He directs the Boston Society Of Architects’ Young Designers Professional Development Institute.
