Managing in Recession

Recession Management. We are entering a sustained period of economic recession that will place considerable strain on the management of professional firms. The RIBA has commissioned James Cooke and John Toppin to write a monthly column in their Journal giving advice to the leaders of architectural firms. We have published them here together with the first in a series of papers designed to help you deal with the difficult management issues ahead. Please use them and don't hesitate to contact me for any futher help.
