Lab Design is an AIA CES approved education provider

Every person who works in the high-stakes environment surrounding lab planning, design, and decision-making knows the value of effective team communication in determining project success. But how can team partners—owners, designers, and project stakeholders—use communication tools to elevate our understanding of each other’s distinct pressures and priorities?

In this lively and practical webinar, an experienced panel will share their best-practice advice and replicable approaches for impactful communications. Representing client, design firm, and construction perspectives, the panelists will tackle the challenges that impede an open and ongoing dialogue and discuss what they see as meaningful actions to overcome these challenges.

The panelists will discuss:

  • Getting projects off to a strong start: early actions and information sharing

  • Understanding owner and design team challenges, aspirations, and pain points

  • Benefitting from stakeholder and user group input via asking the right questions

  • Harnessing communication and design assist as a prelude to successful construction
