Colorado Sustainable Design Awards

The Colorado Sustainable Design Awards recognize outstanding design in residential, civic and commercial properties, and – new this year – interior design.

Since establishing the awards three years ago, we’ve seen outstanding innovations in sustainable building. But that hasn’t stopped our judges from wanting to see architects, developers and building contractors set the bar higher, particularly when it comes to cost and whether those innovations can be adapted for widespread use.

This year’s judging panel includes returning judges Joshua Radoff, principal, YRG Sustainability Consultants; Conor Merrigan, high performance building program manager, Colorado Governor’s Energy Office; and Susan Powers, president, Urban Ventures LLC.

Mike Cote is the editor of ColoradoBiz. E-mail him at mcote@cobizmag.com.

The Leadership Lattice: Art Zeile: John- I have met many strong leaders that have come from the Academy here in Colorado. You're right. It provides a great foundation for life and business! Thanks for your comment!

Sexual harassment: 20 years after: I agree, Irene. As usual, a few bad apples have killed common sense for all of us. But, I'll say it again...just be careful until you know you can trust someone...on both sides. Also, though, people betray those who trust them. But 95% of the time, people are going to understand any caring gestures for what they are. Some people, however, will misconstrue them. Whether or not to take the risk is a judgment call. But you're right...complete safety only lies in being a cold zombie-like creature and not showing any care for those around you. Sad.

The Leadership Lattice: Art Zeile: I've told people who asked me about my business success for years that the Air Force gave me the best management training available. Good article. Military training has been developed from centuries of experience not from some idealistic study.

Creating buyer urgency: VERY true, as salespeople have do the power to to help someone avoid painful experiences. Creating fake urgency is another technique that went out in the 80's.... with leg warmers and perms. Thanks.

Sexual harassment: 20 years after: the sad part of this is that appropriate affection can so easily be misconstued for inappropriate actions. The much needed and appreciated hug can be misconstrued for inappropriate lust. The only way to escape possible criticism is to be a rather zombie-like character. and we may all become robots in the end.
