Architects are worried that AI and tech will negatively disrupt the industry. But what if the biggest shift isn't about tech at all?
In this session, architects Leah Bayer and Andy Robert flip the narrative. Rather than focusing on what's being lost to automation, they explore what’s being unlocked: more time, more space, and more opportunity to center the people who make architecture possible. You will learn:
⚗️ The science of high-performing teams (trust, autonomy, emotional intelligence)
⚗️ How collaboration directly drives business performance and innovation
⚗️ The true ROI of enabling people through technology
⚗️ Practical ways to replace rigid systems with flexible, people-first workflows
⚗️ Real stories from firms designing beyond borders—using tech to fuel connection, not replace it
