2019 AIA IOWa Spring Conference

Thought Leaders

Thank you for coming to the 2019 Spring Conference!

April 18, 2019

Memorial Union | Iowa State University

Ames, Iowa

welcome

Architects are constantly guiding individuals, teams and entire organizations through the use of strategic communication, research and creativity. This year’s conference is inspired by the unique position architects hold in the decision making process and how we execute our leadership skills to motivate the implementation of new ideas, be forward thinkers and apply new technologies to inform our built surroundings.

To be thought leaders we must equip ourselves with the knowledge required to orchestrate meaningful conversations with the public by understanding how projects both influence individual’s behaviors and impact the environmental conditions. Let’s come together and share ideas that speak to greater societal goals by seeking to affect a complete cultural change through utilizing the tools at our fingertips and leading our communities to a better tomorrow.
