Monday Morning Coffee with Patrick MacLeamy

Patrick MacLeamy the former CEO of the world-renowned architecture firm HOK, joins us again. In this episode we dive into his book Designing a World-Class Architecture Firm. We take a deep dive into how: why Patrick wrote this book, how to value your firm, how to structure your bank accounts, and how to think about bonuses. Patrick practiced architecture for 50 years at HOK, one of the top 10 largest architecture/engineering firms in the world. He began there as a “junior designer” and worked his way up, serving as HOK’s CEO and Chairman from 2003-2017. As CEO, Patrick led HOK’s transformation from a firm that struggled to pay its bills and was close to breaking apart, to one that is consistently profitable, with a company culture where people help each other to succeed.
