Leading Collaborative Architectural Practice

By: Erin Carraher,Ryan E. Smith

The groundbreaking guide to modern leadership in architectural practice Leading Collaborative Architectural Practice is the leadership handbook for today's design and construction professionals. Endorsed by the American Institute of Architects, this book describes the collaborative approach to leadership that is becoming increasingly prevalent in modern practice; gone are the days of authoritative "star" architects— today's practice is a brand, and requires the full input of every member of the team. This book builds off of a two-year AIA research project to provide a blueprint for effective leadership: the ability, awareness, and commitment to lead project teams who work together to accomplish the project's goals. Both group and individual hands-on exercises help facilitate implementation, and extensive case studies show how these techniques have helped real-world firms build exemplary success through collaborative teamwork and leadership. Highly illustrated and accessible, this approach is presented from the practicing architect's point of view—but the universal principles and time-tested methods also provide clear guidance for owners, contractors, engineers, project managers, and students. Build a culture of collaboration, commitment, and interpersonal awareness Adopt effective leadership techniques at the team, project, or practice level Handle conflict and resolve communication issues using tested approaches Learn how real-world projects use effective leadership to drive success The last decade has seen a sea-change in architectural leadership. New practices no longer adopt the name and identity of a single person, but create their own identity that represents the collaborative work of the entire group. Shifts in technology and changing workplace norms have made top-down management structures irrelevant, so what does it now mean to lead? Forefront presents effective contemporary leadership in the architectural practice, and real-world guidance on everyday implementation.

The Forest Feast Gatherings

Simple Vegetarian Menus for Hosting Friends & Family

By: Erin Gleeson

The New York Times–bestselling author of The Forest Feast returns with a gorgeously illustrated volume of 100 new vegetarian recipes for entertaining. When food photographer Erin Gleeson left New York City to live in a cabin in the woods of northern California, she embarked on a culinary adventure of vegetable-centric, seasonal cooking. In The Forest Feast Gatherings, she shares simple, healthy recipes that are easy enough to prepare after a long day at work, yet impressive enough for a party. Along with her visually stunning photography and watercolors, Erin handwrites each recipe to create diagram-like, step-by-step instructions that are vibrant, unique, and east to cook from. She also offers guidance on hosting casual yet thoughtful get-togethers from start to finish. The book offers 100 new, innovative vegetarian recipes that serve 60 to 8, along with some fan favorites from the blog, arranged in a series of artfully designed menus that are tailored around specific occasions—whether a summer dinner party, a laid-back brunch, a vegan and gluten-free gathering, or holiday cocktails.

Periodic Methods for Controlling a Satellite in Formation

By: Erin Y. Carraher

Precise position determination and control is necessary to accomplish proposed satellite formation flying missions of ground movement target indication and synthetic aperture radar. This thesis combines the estimation and control techniques of past AFIT theses with various time-varying and time- invariant LQG control methods. Linear time-invariant control is ideal for on- board satellite estimation and control applications, freeing-up the satellite's limited computational capacity. Using a dynamics frame transformation from the nodal frame to an orbital frame, a higher fidelity, time-periodic model produced nearly identical results for either time-varying or time-invariant control for many scenarios. Scenarios included initial perturbations in the radial, in- track, and cross-track directions as well as increased magnitude perturbations; step size increase from 0.2 seconds to 2 seconds; and increased and reduced measurement noise level scenarios versus the standard absolute GPS receiver noise level.
