- Business
Lisa Raynes and Danni Kerr talk about the ups and downs of their careers in architecture - and why they both seek to raise others up.
Architecture is one of the hardest careers to enter as it takes so long to qualify, and for those from non-traditional backgrounds, it can take even longer to do so. Once qualified in a notoriously conservative profession it can be difficult to progress, especially if you start a family. So what keeps architects coming back to the game of snakes and ladders that is a career in the profession?
In this podcast host Lisa Raynes will chat to architect, teacher and academic Danni Kerr about the ups and downs of carving a path as an architect – and why they it’s such pleasure to raise up others up and see them achieve their potential.
Pride Road Franchise grew out of Founder Lisa Raynes’ refusal to accept that there was only one way for a woman to have an architecture career and a family life. She built her practice in the domestic sector, and then invested to turn her business into one that other ambitious architects wanting work/life balance can buy into. She’s had a seat on the RIBA Council (2015-18), been Chair of Women in Property NW and founded Manchester Curious, an urban architecture outreach festival. Lisa is passionate about seeing other architects achieve their potential, particularly those who have left, or are on the verge of leaving, the profession.
