December Meeting @ Ruffner Mountain Nature Center
Tools for your Firm’s Successful Future/Emerging Risk
Mike Jackson with Crow Friedman sponsored a lunch and learn at the Ruffner Mtn. Nature Center on Wednesday, December 17th. Robert van Arsdall with XL Insurance Group spoke about the general and specific risks faced by A/E firms and how those risks have evolved over the last 10 years. He also presented information on how firms can minimize liability through such practices thorough better client selection, effective COMMUNICATION, and specific contractual language.
Part II of the seminar covered employees and who to hire. Baby boomers are retiring, but we all know architects NEVER really retire. Hire the baby boomers on contract as project managers and mentors to your interns, freeing your time for business development and design. Boomers are tired of the administration and headaches of architecture, but as contract project managers, they get to enjoy architecture again. And an added bonus, they have insurance (Medicare)! This is just a tease of Part II of the presentation – much more solid info.
