During the first 16 weeks of 2013, I published a series of blog articles called the Entrepreneur Architect Academy.

This month, the #ArchiTalks topic is “My First Project”, so I decided to repost a 3-part article I originally published back in 2013.

I first opened my office in New York in 2003, and over the course of several years I had been able to hire a small team of architects. With five years of work behind us, our firm had just been getting its sea legs when the crisis hit. Finding a full-time job at a big architecture firm was one possible path.

For architects, especially those in small firms, nothing has changed much in the past 40 years. While most businesses have moved forward with modern business practices in management and human resources, the small firm is left behind and is having problems maintaining a strong productive team.

This past December I was invited to speak at AIAS Forum 2013; the American Institute of Architecture Students national convention. While we waited for the airports to open, I had the opportunity to speak in length with many of the architecture students in attendance. That first summer was not encouraging. I had goals to meet.
