Know This! Megatrends in the Design & Construction Industry (1 PDH)
Firm leaders, marketers, and business developers need
to continually scan their environments to uncover trends that will impact their vertical markets, their clients, and
their firms directly. This presentation looks at many of the trends or potential trends that are currently affecting design and construction firms – or are coming in the near future. This presentation captures more than two dozen of these megatrends and interprets them for A/E/C professionals.
Attendees will learn how to:
1. Recognize the megatrends that will impact their firms and their clients.
2. Evaluate which trends will be the most disruptive and identify corrective actions to take.
3. Incorporate environmental scanning into their firm administration program to stay abreast of economic and business trends.
4. Interpret megatrends and incorporate this knowledge to differentiate their firms and gain a competitive edge.
