Building a Successful AE Firm

In episode 057 of The Civil Engineering Podcast, I talk with Mark Zweig, Founder, and Chairman of the Zweig Group and Chad Clinehens, PE, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Zweig Group about what it takes for building a successful AE Firm. If you want to grow as a Civil Engineer, or you want your company to grow, this episode will help you tremendously in achieving that goal.

Here are some of the questions I ask the Zweig Group leaders in regards to building a successful AE Firm.

  • What are the characteristics of fast growing, successful AE firms?
  • What made you decide to run a conference to recognize these firms?
  • How should an AE firm approach branding?
