The BD+C Under 40 Leadership Summit II will be held in Chicago from noon, Oct. 3 to 1 p.m., Oct. 5, 2012.  The event will be held at the historic Hotel Monaco, with breakout meetings across the street at the AIA Chicago headquarters.
Similar to last year’s inaugural event, the Under 40 Leadership Summit II will bring together members of “the next generation of AEC Industry leaders.”
This year’s focus is on CREATIVITY.
Our featured presenter, Autodesk Fellow Tom Wujec, is a thought leader in personal and team creativity, technology innovation, and visual strategy. He is the author and editor of several books, an adjunct professor at Singularity University, a TED Conference speaker and a pioneer in the emerging practice of business visualization
Wujec will guide U40 Summit II participants through a series of interactive group activities that will stimulate their creative strategic planning processes through proven visualization techniques: making ideas visible, tangible, and persistent, and thereby building collaboration that yields clarity in problem-solving.
But there’s more. We’ll be touring leading Chicago-based AEC firms and noteworthy current projects. And there’ll be plenty of opportunity to network with other U40s.Â
