What are your predictions for your industry in 2022?
#BouncingForward is well underway on all cylinders for Spectorgroup in our various practices. We continue to evolve as a firm, always providing solutions to the daily challenges we face. Our priorities are to service our clients at the highest level of professionalism while maintaining a healthy workplace for our team members.
What is the best advice you received in 2021, and who was it from?
2021 remained a solution driven year to the challenges the profession continues to face. My good friend and client Jeff Weiner, CEO of Marcum, said to me, “While taking risks, always shoot holes in the boat above the water line. This way you won’t sink.” Calculated risk taking in 2021 will be rewarded well in 2022.
What was the biggest lesson you learned while working during the pandemic?
The pandemic taught us to be uniquely resourceful to service our clients; to take care of your own team professionally and personally; and to always be kind.
How has your working environment changed over the last year?
Like many others, we implemented a hybrid model of WFO WFA. Our profession thrives on personal, live communications. The virtual component is here to stay and now is being designed as a state of the art permanent fixture in the workplace.
What was your greatest professional accomplishment or most notable project, deal, or transaction in 2021?
Our greatest professional accomplishment is that the profession of architecture is now an essential element in the recovery of our great city and region. To contribute to the effort to return to the new normal is very personal. #BounceForward
