I have a disdain for ineffective meetings and will end them abruptly if I feel it’s a waste of my client’s time. Think architect is presenting information to owner, but they aren’t prepared/don’t have agenda, etc. I require all meetings that people have with myself or my client to provide a complete agenda 48 hours before the meeting and meeting minutes 48 hours said meeting. My responsibility is to ensure the owner’s goals are met. That means, not wasting their time. When the team follows these guidelines, we have a great time and very effective projects.
I learned from them!
Yes, I am. I do have a bachelor’s degree. I had applied for law school, but didn’t pursue due to my current employment opportunity.

And, they do that independently or do they rely on each other?
Both, we have determined check-in meetings and communication processes for asking questions.
see above. I hire an architect, who hires their sub-consultants. They need feedback from my client. I facilitate the process for them getting the feedback, then ensure they incorporate. I then ensure that the owner reviews and provides feedback in adequate timelines.
You would essentially be doing that, with different lengths. In other words, the five page would have all of those elements; the three page would have all of those elements; the one page would have all of those elements; the two paragraph would have all of those elements; the two sentence would be a quick snapshot. Why this is important, imo, is understanding the audience. I write five page reports for my client I report to. I write 3 page reports for his boss, I write 1 page for the oversight committees, I write 3 paragraphs for the board, and 2 sentences for the community.
Varying levels of responsibility receive varying levels of information.
(you) have them identify a noun and a verb
noun. vb. obj.
Edit: sub. changed to noun. Cause I’m multi-tasking on a conference call.
