The AIA’s Repositioning initiative, which began more than a year ago, is a research and assessment effort that identified specific areas in the AIA that require real and meaningful change for the organization to remain relevant to members and the profession of architecture. The recommendations of LaPlaca Cohen, the consultants that conducted the research and analysis, focused on three core areas: AIA leadership structure, institutional framework and operational focus.
The AIA has engaged Kotter International, the foremost expert in change management, to help implement the next phase of Repositioning. Their expertise, mapped onto the AIA’s strategy and vision, will point the way forward, thoughtfully and operationally. Kotter joins world-renowned design firm Pentagram in the Repositioning effort to bring clarity and focus to AIA leadership structure, institutional framework and operational focus.
The AIA will hold quarterly Virtual Town Halls to give members a forum to speak out and gather great ideas. Robert Ivy, FAIA, EVP/CEO and Mickey Jacob, FAIA, 2013 AIA President, invite you to join them as they have an open conversation about the progress of AIA’s Repositioning efforts. Registration is now open for the October and December sessions. Please share your voice.
Registration information for Friday, Oct. 25, 1-2 p.m.
Registration information for Wednesday, Dec. 4, 1-2 p.m.
