Marjanne Pearson

Recognized as an industry pioneer in business strategies for architecture and design, Marjanne Pearson has the ability to ask the questions that should be on the strategic agenda of every design firm.

Building on her experience in design firm management and independent practice, she focuses on strategies for organizational fluidity, resiliency, and success. She is an expert in addressing the complexities of talent development, organizational evolution, and practice sustainability, within the context of competitive advantage. Her clients are a remarkable constellation of design firms that include signature architects, emergent practices, regional powerhouses, and corporate giants.

Always an inveterate networker, with the emergence of new communication channels and the resulting phenomenon of instant and often guerilla commentary, Marjanne has developed hands-on experience with social media strategy — to reach targeted audiences, build influence, and shape perception.
