What’s the difference between understanding something and actually getting someone else to understand it?

This week we sit down with Andy Richardson of 29E6 and host of ENHANCE AEC to explore the power of clear communication in the AEC industry. With nearly 30 years in structural engineering, Andy shares how simplifying complexity without losing meaning can reduce rework, improve collaboration and drive better project outcomes.

From real-world design decisions to lessons learned through teaching and podcasting, this conversation highlights why clarity isn’t a talent, it’s a practice, and why “care” might be the most important skill in the age of AI.

If you want to communicate better, lead more effectively and turn ideas into action, this one’s for you.
