1031: Dan Mazzarini: Empowering Your Interior Design Team to Succeed
Manage episode 447374620 series 127356
Today With Dan Mazzarini:
Welcome to a Well-Designed Business. When you think about the future of your firm, what do you envision? Are you going to stay small? Or do you hope to grow your team?
There’s no right or wrong answer. Different business owners have different goals. But if you do want to build a team, you have to learn how to lead efficiently, create strong processes, and cultivate the right team culture.
My guest today, Dan Mazzarini, principal and creative director of BHDM desig, knows what it takes to manage a large team.
On their website, BHDM design describes itself as a creative collective of designers, architects, artists, and illustrators—and they truly do approach their projects from this collective, collaborative perspective. Dan has worked hard to establish that collective—and today, he’s here to share how.
LuAnn Nigara and Dan Mazzarini's Ah-Ha Moments
“With clarity comes confidence.” -Dan
“Having good partners in leadership, having trusted voices in the room, has helped me make decisions around the business on things that we do or don’t do and ways that we do or don’t grow the business.” -Dan
“You’re not angsting over not designing or having to manage people. It feels like what you’re saying is you find, connect with, and enjoy the parts in two very different roles—being creative and being the head of the company.” LuAnn
