Deploying Disruptive Technologies
with a Disruptive Approach to
Leadership
By Adam Lawver and Sean O'Connor
Apple. Disney. Lego. What these companies all have in common
is that they have "disrupted" their traditional business models and
(some would argue) their respective industries by introducing game-
changing technologies. ey are preparing for the future, or in Simon
Sinek's words "playing the infinite game."

Water Stagnation and Reopening
Our Campuses After COVID-19
By Tim Keane and William Rhoads, Ph.D.
While academic institutions experience widespread stagnation
annually during summer months, it is suspected that COVID-related
stagnation is more extensive and longer duration than normal. While
there is no simple one size fits all answer, many building managers
have to make decisions about their particular facility and risk factors,
and what level of response is appropriate and achievable.

Potty Parity in Performing Arts
By Rose Steele
Pre-pandemic, there weren't enough women's stalls in public
bathrooms in performing arts facilities because building codes do
not require enough to accommodate the actual demands. And,
despite improvements on this front over the last 30 years, codes
have continued to ignore this key issue. Switching to gender-neutral
bathrooms could greatly reduce the problem, or at least spread it
equally among all patrons and those of us in design and construction.
