  • I really like how Emily Henry makes connections with her professional experiences through anecdotes to help the course takers learn more about business development and the importance of building relationships and networks in doing business.

    Anhad Viswanath, Associate ASLA 

  • This is an easily digestible course! It helps you understand how to be competitive in the business development sphere and identify your strengths to tackle a challenging part of the profession. I valued this course for the great resources and tips to better understand business development and what skills you need to develop in order to be successful. Addresses a difficult and amorphous topic and makes it accessible to someone new to business development in their firm. Overall a great course! I think it will be very helpful to folks who are new to this or may be more introverted and need a place to start learning how to build professional relationships outside of the office.

    Gabriella Salvemini, ASLA

  • Emily’s business development course pulled me out of daily tasks and encouraged me to reflect on what truly matters to me. It made me ask important questions: What do I care about? Why? And how can I turn those passions into action? This shift has been invaluable, helping me refocus and find greater purpose in my work.

    Fei Peng, ASLA

  • Projects don’t come out of nowhere – there is a lot of work that goes into securing the dream projects your firm gets to work on. This course will help designers who are transitioning into positions where they are expected to bring in new work. Business Development skills aren’t always innate, and this course offers helpful strategies to designers who have focused mostly on design in their careers and not so much on strategic relationship building. It shows you that anyone can do business development, and they can do it in their own style, it doesn’t need to be scary or inauthentic.
