thoughts from an industry veteran about the nature of design firms

    I am grateful to know John J. Parman ... and we are all lucky that he has distilled his observations about firms in this succinct piece in COMMON EDGE COLLABORATIVE. Each one of these has something to offer today's firms of all scales, and to all people working within them and with them. https://commonedge.org/the-nature-of-design-firms-from-a-five-decade-veteran/

    Yes, terrific insights and, as always, well written by John.  I would add one more insight:

    Wisdom stems from a mx of experience, mistakes and self-examination.
