University of Buffalo + ArchiteXX Spring Mentoring

ArchiteXX collaborated with University of Buffalo School of Architecture and Planning in Fall 2022 on the pilot of a mentoring program to assist Architecture Degree candidates with a variety of academic and career concerns.

The Fall 2022 pilot program successfully paired over twenty-five UB mentees with mentors, many of whom continued their mentorship beyond the introductory session. Having received overwhelmingly positive feedback, ArchiteXX and UB are pleased to announce the program is coming back to UB for this current Spring 2024 academic semester.  Additional details will be posted at architexx.org in the coming weeks.  Many thanks to Elaine Chow, AIA, NCARB, LEED AP and Clinical Assistant Professor at UB for facilitating the program launch.

ArchiteXX is seeking collaborations with other architectural degree programs to bring undergraduate and graduate mentoring to campuses around the nation. If you are a professor, or administrator, interested in launching this program at your institution, please contact www.architexx.org/contact-1.

How to Communicate Your Brand

How to Communicate Your Brand

ArchiteXX will be hosting a free training work session with Tami Hausman, President of Hausman and Gabriela Valero Arias, Communications Manager at Selldorf Architects as the 3rd installment of our mid-career mentorship program. The training will take place tomorrow, October 19th at 6:30pm ET. 

You have learned the skills to succeed in architecture, but do you know how to communicate your work to non-architects? Knowing how to talk about design and construction to non-professionals is a critical skill as you grow your career. While many architects are good at talking to their peers, they’re not always able to successfully verbalize the importance of their work to people outside the profession, including clients.

To be a leader, you need to be one step ahead of the game. Instead of describing the what, you need to be focused on the why. By communicating your value and your promise, you can confidently demonstrate ways to overcome your clients' challenges and meet their goals. By building your brand, you can forefront your vision, expertise, and knowledge to your peers within the industry and beyond.

In this workshop, the co-presenters will show you how to create and disseminate your personal brand that can take you from satisfactory to sensational. They’ll discuss methods and strategy for building your reputation, such as: how to clearly communicate your ideas, write about relevant topics, leverage social media, speak at conferences, participate in professional organizations, and network like crazy.
