Joachim Viktil joins the podcast to talk about the growing gap between how architects are trained to think and how architectural firms are structured to operate. We explore the hidden cost of staying busy, the limits of billable-hour business models, and why architects, despite being trained as systems thinkers, are often confined to producing deliverables instead of improving the systems behind the work.

This episode is especially relevant for firm leaders and tech-curious architects who feel the tension between utilization and leverage, and are questioning whether the current structure of practice is setting their best people up to thrive.
