SUMMARY:Nov. MM: Firm Culture: It Matters!
DESCRIPTION:Today\, the spotlight is on Firm Culture\, as firms compete to hire and retain the "best" employees.  But what is Firm Culture?  For Firm Leaders\, how do you create the "right" Culture for your firm?  For those seeking a Firm\, how do you find a Firm Culture that resonates with you? \n\n \n\nFirm Culture is a result of a firm's history\, values\, principles\, attitudes\, and behaviors.  In short\, it is the  "Sum Expression of What Matters to the Senior Leaders of a Firm"  Nick Ruehl\n\n \n\nHow do you know what matters?  The answer is expressed in how clearly leaders model the shared values.  Where are they centered?  Where do they spend money?  Whom do they hire?  What do they reward?  What do they tolerate?\n\n \n\nSimilar to great engineering\, great firm culture is an elegant and inspiring system of systems.  In some cases\, it is stunningly simple in its expression\; in others\, very complex.  While engineering is for people\, Culture is about people.  That both are inspiring is critical.\n\n \n\nWhile there are many facets to Firm Culture\, we will explore different models to assessing and understanding Firm Culture\, and discuss what it takes to build a firm whose culture that is both high performing and inspiring to all who work there.\n\n \n\n \n\nSpeaker Biography:  As President of Ruehl + Associates\, Nick advises high performing organizations in Leadership Development\, Strategic Planning\, Team Building\, and Innovation.  He is a valued resource to the A/E/C industry\, having over 40 years of experience in firm ownership and leadership.  Prior to forming Ruehl + Associates in 2005\, he was a Managing Principal of an architecture\, engineering\, and construction management firm.
