Customer Reviews
An Inside View into the AEC Industry!
I have the privilege of producing this show and working with the MCFA Team. Prior to doing so, I didn’t know anything about the AEC Industry. Now, thanks to IP&P and the shows host, BJ Kreamer, I have better understanding of the space, and the challenges faced by what BJ calls, “Entrepreneurial Public Servants.” There’s tons of value packed in each episode, make sure you tune in to each episode!
Awesome listen
Love the pod. You can learn a lot from all the guests.
Thought provoking and stimulating!
Absolutely can not wait for more episodes to be released! The flow, format and content of all of the episodes has been amazing to listen to and worth the time. Ok if you ever wanted to peek behind the curtain of the AEC world, this is the best I’ve found.
