The MAW Review 2: Awards, Heroes & Pride (Managing Egos)
Expanding on the last episode on
The MAW Review: A Commentary on the Malaysian Architecture Dialogue
Let's focus on The MAW Review 2 and delve into the keywords found during the discussion on "awards", "heroes" and "pride". I added "managing egos" to the 'pride' discussion as an afterthought on what we need to do in the architecture industry and although it is not the main part of the conversation, much of it has to happen some how. A lot have been said about "awards", and I would like to comment further here, plus touching on heroes and mentors. However this is just an addendum (part 2) to the earlier podcast.
