23 Mar Culture as a Competitive Advantage for AED Firms (Seminar)
How can leaders create a culture that elevates their team’s creativity & design quality to achieve business growth?
Industry-leading practices apply strategic approaches to managing people, finances, and operations. Where talent is the main competitive resource of a creative practice, culture plays an important role in a practice’s morale, productivity, and creative potential. The goal of this highly interactive session is to provide participants with actionable knowledge of business systems to:
- Increase a studio’s capacity for design innovation and quality;
- Recognize and develop individual talent and build strong teams; and,
- Build a studio’s talent and culture to develop competitive advantage.
