In the spring of 2022, Tracing Architecture was awarded an Emerging Professionals Component Grant by the AIA College of Fellows. This grant has allowed us to partner with groups in our community that would otherwise not have access to a media platform, such as our podcast, and allow those groups to have critical conversations that can engage our profession and local community more broadly. For this special episode, we collaborated with the Women's Leadership Group of AIA Phoenix Metro to host a live podcast recording. The AIA Phoenix Metro Women's Leadership Group strives to raise the profile of women principals and leaders in the profession, to share and promote the design work of women, to explore new paths to leadership, and to learn from each other. For this live event, a panel will discuss a range of topics around the value of leadership and why it matters.
