Talk Architecture Naziaty

Based on a Facebook post by an architecture student who asked about the skills that they need apart from 'copying', I made clear suggestions on what are the missing skill set that consists of :

1. Observational (sketching)
2. Critical thinking 
3. Analytical thinking

(Both number 2 & 3 are to do with reading and understanding concepts apart from architecture, and through the processes of reflective thinking is able to be more discerning).

These make up the fundamental skill set on 'how to' obtain the knowledge and ability to be an architect who will have choices of different career streams and not just end up working for a developer or one type of architecture company for the rest of their lives.

ESG business models impact society's aspirations when focused on creating eco-systems and not just ticking boxes to look good. Have businesses considered the 'social' in ESG enough? " The Social in ESG covers 'human rights, community involvement, diversity, and customer satisfaction'" (https://www.thecorporategovernanceinstitute.com/insights/guides/simple-guide-esg/) 
However, in this discussion, we look to the words 'sense', 'embrace', and, 'approach'  rather just on taking a cursory approach to 'social' in a business model.
