Learning Outcomes
Critically reflect on the inevitable influence of personal values on design decisions and practice management, and how that can be used to foster cultural continuity within small design studios.; Assess the idea of “relay mentorship,” and learn how values can pass from one firm to new generations of firms though shared histories.; Learn how cultural shifts can create new opportunities for both existing firms and new practices, and discuss potential pitfalls to avoid during change management.; Explore how values and meaning influence community access to landscape work from a code perspective and more broadly through universal access, and equity and inclusion.
