The SMPS Colorado Senior Leadership Roundtable is a peer group for senior marketing and business development leaders, providing support for members facing similar career and business challenges. In 2025, the quarterly events will explore trends impacting A/E/C professionals, based on the SMPS Foundation's “Building Resilience: A/E/C’s Path Beyond 2025.”

The first session will focus on “Workforce: Properly Fueling the Talent Pipeline”.

By bringing together accomplished leaders, we aim to create an environment conducive to valuable conversations on leadership experiences and the qualities that define successful leaders in the A/E/C industry. Participants will have the opportunity to delve into lessons learned, share best practices and challenges, and engage in discussions that go beyond the surface, all within a safe and confidential space.

To participate in the Senior Leadership Roundtable, we ask the following:

• Active SMPS Colorado membership.
• A minimum of 10 years of industry experience AND/OR leadership positions at firm.
• A passion for transforming business through marketing leadership.

Key Takeaways:

• Current Challenges: Post-COVID work expectations, multigenerational teams, and talent development.
• Leadership and Vision: Creating a clear vision to align the team and make tough decisions.
• Attracting Workers: Addressing the shrinking candidate pool and reevaluating educational requirements.
• Remote Work: Benefits and challenges of remote and hybrid work models.
• Integrating Generations: Importance of bi-directional mentorship for business continuity.
• Career Development: Necessity of clear career paths and investment in learning and development.
