Hi, my husband an i are currently in Missouri. We used to be in NYC, and move down here for works. We been feeling a bit lonely here, away from our NYC friends. But we do love the nature and chill vibe. We visited VT last year in the green mountain area, and we like it there. We are wondering would Brattleboro be a good next location for our life. Considering it has amtrak to NYC. We are both architects, and running our own practice. We are interested in design build. Or we just move back to new york. we will also have a new born. any suggestion or life recommendation

Trying to see what is the best way and what to avoid in project management. To effectively track the hours and get a very clear sense of what is on the horizon for the project.

We are a small firm of 4 people, doing about 10 projects a year. I feel it is not the most effective way yet, I wanna see how other offices work. Sometimes when the project gets big, it feels kinda of chaotic.

What do you recommend? Have you learned any pitfalls before? If this is not your office's strong suit, why is that?

Slack messages? weekly meetings? How many hours do the manager or project architects spend on admin vs. billable design hours weekly?

How does the role break down?
