SUMMARY:Why Good Engineering Teams Still Struggle: Five Hidden Patterns That Create Project Chaos\, Rework\, and Burnout
DESCRIPTION:Strong engineering teams do not usually struggle because they lack talent\, effort\, or technical expertise. More often\, projects become difficult because of recurring organizational patterns that are easy to overlook.Join ACEC/Michigan and Tia Longo Milder of Tia Longo Consulting for a practical\, blameless look at five hidden patterns that can disrupt project execution and contribute to delays\, rework\, missed commitments\, and unnecessary pressure on teams.Attendees will explore how familiar challenges such as communication problems\, missed deadlines\, unclear accountability\, and competing priorities may actually be symptoms of deeper organizational issues. The session will help participants look beyond surface-level problems\, identify what may be creating friction\, and consider targeted improvements without simply adding more meetings\, processes\, or bureaucracy.The Five Hidden Patterns  Solving the Wrong Problem\n  Decisions Without a Clear Home\n  Risk Hidden in the Handoffs\n  Urgency Replacing Clarity\n  Leaders Becoming BottlenecksLearning ObjectivesBy the end of the webinar\, attendees will be able to:  Recognize patterns that disrupt project execution.\n  Distinguish symptoms from underlying causes.\n  Identify friction in decisions\, handoffs\, and priorities.\n  Identify improvements to reduce rework\, delays\, and team strain.Who Should AttendEngineering firm leaders\, principals\, project managers\, department and operations leaders\, and emerging leaders responsible for delivering work across teams\, clients\, disciplines\, and operational dependencies.Presenter: Tia Longo Milder\, Tia Longo ConsultingPDHs: 1 PDHRegistration Fees:\nACEC/Michigan Members: $65\nNon-Members: $85Webinar Information:\nThis program will be held virtually via Google Meet.
