Jackie Eckhardt to Present at 2023 Design-Build Conference & Expo
Join our team at the 2023 Design-Build Conference & Expo in National Harbor, MD.
Principal and Higher Education Leader, Jackie Eckhardt, AIA, LEED AP, Assoc. DBIA, will be presenting a session titled, “Decisions That Stick: How to Support Defensible Decision-Making”.
She will be accompanied by co-presenters, including Jeannie Natta, DBIA, Interim Director, Project Delivery Group, University of Washington, and Ellen Spell, AIA, CDT, LEED AP BD+C, Design Manager, BNBuilders, Inc.
Whether laying the conceptual groundwork for a project or problem-solving an issue in real-time, the ability of a Design-Build team to make defensible decisions is fundamental to meeting project goals. A3 Problem Solving and Choosing By Advantages are complementary tools that support effective communication and timely approvals by providing a robust, objective means for project teams to collect, compare and present alternative options in a comprehensive manner.
Each presenter has leveraged variations of the A3 Problem Solving and Choosing By Advantages tools to facilitate a defensible process at all levels of decision-making. They will share their experiences and lessons learned for using and adapting these tools and lead an interactive workshop where attendees can learn the basics and work in groups to record the decision-making process based on some shared examples.
Jackie’s session will be on the third day of the conference, Friday, November 3 from 10:30 AM – 11:30 AM.
