This early findings report will highlight key findings from the 2018 survey, calling attention to the career experiences of professionals based on gender, as well as race and ethnicity. The survey was designed with the following 3 research goals/objectives which focus on the differential experiences of professionals based on gender, race, ethnicity, and sexuality: • Build a comprehensive, national dataset detailing the career experiences, perceptions, and aspirations of graduates of architecture programs. • Explore career dynamics and pinch points that shape these experiences in the field and determine whether these experiences vary on the basis of personal identity.

NEXT STEPS EARLY FINDINGS

Architecture has long been (and continues to be) a discipline dominated by White men. Equity by Design and AIA San Francisco have teamed up with the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture (ACSA) to investigate this ongoing trend and uncover key career pinch points that may contribute to its perpetuation. For the 2018 Equity in Architecture Survey, the third conducted by the group since 2014, the team set an ambitious goal of reaching 10,000+ respondents, generating a comprehensive national dataset detailing current positions and career experiences of architecture school graduates. Building on the success of the 2016 Equity in Architecture Survey, ACSA used its relevance within the discipline of architecture to expand the reach of the survey, alongside other external partnerships fostered by the Equity by Design Research Committee members.

METHODOLOGY RESEARCH TEAM

taking the survey.

The research team consisted of a sub-committee of AIA San Francisco’s Equity by Design comprised of architects, designers, AIA staff and industry consultants. This team was responsible for designing the parameters of the research project and presenting the results of the research to the public.

The result is a 134 question survey, with separate tracks for sole practitioners, those working in firms, those working other settings, and a specialized track for architecture school faculty. This report will focus mainly on the experiences of sole practitioners and those working in firms, but we will also touch on the experiences of those working in other settings. Fuller information on these groups will be available on our website in the coming months.

SURVEY DESIGN This year, the team embarked on our most ambitious research project yet. Working with the ACSA as our research partner, the EQxD core team and the Survey Design Committee designed the survey over a 4-month period, conducting an extensive literature review and holding focus groups on each research topic. The survey questions were written by the Survey Design Core Committee with significant input from Drs. Kendall Nicholson and Michael Monti from ACSA. Collectively, the team reviewed sampling strategies, survey design options and the conversion of research goals to research questions. In the following weeks, the ACSA research team guided the development of the survey design led by AIASF/EQxD and based on conference call discussion and key objectives/goals. Final approval of survey design was conducted by the ACSA Research Team Lead, Kendall Nicholson, and Annelise Pitts, Equity by Design Research Chair. In an effort to confirm construct validity, a small focus group of participants were asked to take the survey and provide feedback regarding the survey’s face and content validity as well as the overall experience of

EQUIT Y BY DESIGN

IMPLEMENTATION The Equity in Architecture 2018 survey was conducted on the internet, and was available to anyone who received an email with an invitation to take the survey. Email invitations were sent to the mailing lists of national architecture industry groups including AIA, ACSA, NAAB, NCARB and NOMA, over 100 local components of these groups, the alumni mailing lists of 65 schools of architecture, and to the employee mailing lists of over 150 architectural firms of all sizes. ACSA and AIASF/EQxD drafted letters, emails and associated press release content for outreach to collateral organizations, ACSA schools, and other groups (such as the Large and Small Firm Roundtables). ACSA coordinated mailing lists from the past Equity by Design survey as well as those from supporting schools and organizations. The 2018 Equity in Architecture Survey launched the week of February 12. The survey remained open for approximately five weeks closing on March 16th, 2018.


Following a pre-analysis discussion, ACSA continued to run the appropriate preliminary statistical analysis for the agreed-upon research questions, and assembled a report detailing the research questions, the research design and methodology, and noting any limitations and assumptions as appropriate. All questions in the survey were then cross tabulated by gender and ethnic group. Based on the review of the research goals, the ACSA Research Team proceeded to use the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) to conduct a preliminary empirical analysis. Equity by Design’s stated objectives require a comparison between males and females, and seven ethnic groups, in a sample that does not meet all of the parametric assumptions. Consequently, Chi-square and Mann-Whitney U test appear to be the best fit for the data set. This year’s survey questions included over 750 variables. Having reviewed the questions, ACSA continued to explore career pinch points and compare the effect of each pinch point on men, women, White or Caucasians, Asians or East Indians, Hispanic and/or

LIMITATIONS • The cross-sectional design of this research constrains the study from concluding that gender differences cause career experiences. However, the 2018 Survey is one segment of a longitudinal study in the making and, by comparing previous and subsequent iterations of the survey, can collectively demonstrate trends in the current positions and career experiences of respondents on the basis of personal identity.

NEXT STEPS EARLY FINDINGS

Following closure of the survey, the ACSA research team reviewed the data, removing incomplete or erroneous responses and tabulated basic information about respondents. This was provided to AIASF EQxD in the form of a Raw Data Set in Excel format for reference and future collaboration on identifying topics for further analysis.

• While the sample size suggests external validity, generalization of this study is limited by the lack of verifiable data for the demographic make-up of the discipline of architecture. • The sample selection was comprised of a volunteer, purposive sample. As in most nationwide surveys, participants may not be representative of their own groups with respect to experience and rendered uneven age groups. However, on the whole, the survey was far reaching in that the range of metrics collected was comprehensive.

BACKGROUND

DATA ANALYSIS

Latinx, those from two or more races, and Black or African Americans. For the purpose of our research only ethnic groups with samples of more than 500 respondents could be analyzed in a way that is valid and reliable. All statistical analysis accounted for parametric assumptions. If parametric assumptions are not met, the appropriate non-parametric test was be used in its place.

• Lastly, the overall number of questions may have lowered the number of complete responses. While this did not affect the ability to garner

more than 10,000 participants, the amount of thought and time required to complete the survey could have increased the likelihood that participants do not finish the survey.

ASSUMPTIONS • The survey created provides an adequate evaluation of the topics reported. • The survey respondents are answering questions with honesty and full consideration.

We need to create a new set of best practices. That will be a design project in itself, based on data, shared examples, and interpretation. Once written, we need to find leaders who will adopt them, firmby-firm, sector-by-sector. That pincer movement needs to make partners (small p) of those coming into architecture and those with enough seniority to make change happen.”

The analysis focuses on the differential experiences of professionals based on gender, sexuality, race, and ethnicity. In alignment with this year’s Symposium theme, we present three closely related frameworks for understanding how issues of equity impact the lives of architecture school graduates. Voices offers insight into personal and professional milestones that have the tendency to hinder career progression and influence decisions to leave the field. Values explores the personal and collective values that guide us in our careers, and the ways in which the narratives that we shape about our professional worth influence our professional experiences. Vision enumerates the ingredients of a satisfying career in architecture by detailing the key components of our career perceptions, and the ways in which individuals and firms can positively influence workplace culture and project outcomes through the lens of equitable frameworks.

From a practical perspective, though, this trend also impacted our analysis. While the median experience level of a white male respondent was 15 years, the median experience level of a black female respondent was less than half of that, at 6 years of experience. This means, that when analyzing a factor that was mediated by both experience level and personal identity, we typically display data plotted by years of experience in order to provide direct comparisons between individuals with comparable experience levels.

In 2014 and 2016, we began our data presentations with a graphic providing a conceptual framework for thinking about equity issues over theSTATEMENT course of a career in architecture. In 2018, as a way of introducing our Voices theme, we have provided snapshot RESEARCH of the profession by identifying the current positions and experiences of every one of our respondents relative to key personal and career milestones.

Equity is the work of minimizing barriers to maximize our potential for success.

To attract and retain the most diverse talent we must hear from those in practice and beyond. We need to listen to their challenges, concerns, and aspirations. The 2018 Equity in Architecture Survey was designed in partnership with the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture and over 50 volunteers from around the country with the goal of generating a comprehensive national data set detailing current positions and career experiences of architecture school graduates. With the assistance of architecture’s national collateral organizations, AIA components, firms, and academic institutions, survey invitations were sent out to a broad cross-section of the profession. The resulting data set—the largest ever collected on equity within the profession—documents the experiences of 14,360 individuals representing

Because a master’s degree isn’t typically associated with increased pay, our respondents with master’s degrees tended to carry higher debt levels for longer after graduation than their counterparts with bachelor’s degrees. This was especially true for black men with master’s degrees, who still carried an average of $55k, or about 6 times as much debt on average as an Asian female with a bachelor’s degree, ten years after graduation.

We did see some clear factors that were correlated with early career retention. Early career professionals who said that their employers didn’t provide training and those without friends in their workplaces were less likely to plan to stay in their current positions, and those who said that their work positively impacted their community, those who built relationships within their firm, and those who received one-on-one coaching were more likely to stay. In short, it seems that personalized attention from peers and firm management, as well as impactful work, as well as engagement in work that impacts community, make a big difference in junior employees’ decisions regarding place of employment.

AVERAGE SALARY BY CAREGIVING RESPO We believe that this difference in likelihood of being a $200K parent on the basis of gender is at least partially attributable to female respondents being more likely than their male counterparts to make decisions about $160K where they work on the basis of either current or anticipated family obligations. When we analyzed $120K female respondents’ likelihood of being mothers on the basis of career track, we saw that women $80K in firms were least likely to be mothers, with working those running sole proprietorships much more likely to $40K have children.

These gender-based differences in career behavior amongst parents are strongly correlated with differences in the roles that mothers and fathers in our sample reported taking in their children’s upbringing. While only 5% of fathers in our sample report being their child or children’s primary caregiver, 44% of mothers report providing most of their children’s care.

Our data suggests that at least part of this difference in the distribution of caregiving responsibilities may be attributable to financial factors. While both male and female primary caregivers earned less than the average salary for all respondents at every level of experience, male respondents who said that their partner was responsible for most caregiving substantially out-earned female respondents with a secondary caregiving role. This suggests that the current distribution of caregiving responsibilities is financially rational in many cases, and that caregiving and pay equity issues should be addressed in tandem to better support working parents.

While most respondents early in their careers aspire to obtain leadership positions, we observed a lack of clarity regarding the criteria by which these promotions were obtained, with about 35% of our staff-level respondents reporting that they didn’t know the criteria for promotion in their firms. We also observed substantial differences in the criteria that mid-level and senior leadership cited as most important in guiding promotion decisions. Overall, the most commonly-cited criteria for promotion were project outcomes, client relationships, and projects won.

SOCIAL FOCUS In the Voices section, we used the collective testimony of 14,360 respondents representing a broad cross section of our professional community to shape an understanding of the challenges that we face individually as we navigate career pinch points. This collective testimony is aimed at helping all of us within the profession with greater understanding of the resources required to foster and support an increasingly diverse talent pool, with the ultimate goal of providing each individual who enters our profession with opportunities to thrive. In the Values section we shift to the collective, asking how these diverse stories might help all of us to reframe our thinking, not just about what an architect looks like, but also about what an architect does, and how we use our personal and collective values to guide professional decision making. Ultimately, we were curious about how a richer understanding of our values would help us to gain new insights into we are valued professionally, and of the value that we provide as professionals to the communities that we serve.

The question of Values grows even more complex as we shift our focus from an individual’s values to our respondents firms’ values. The most common values that respondents say guide their firms’ decision making are client satisfaction, profitability & growth, and collaboration & teamwork. These sound very different from the values that most of us say drive our own professional decision-making, suggesting a potential disconnect and therefore a lack of clarity between the ways that we think of ourselves personally and collectively as architects, and potentially even a lack of clarity in whether we judge one another’s contributions on the basis of our ideas of what a singular architect does, or on the basis of the more client-driven, collaborative notions of what guides a firm.

Among those working within architecture firms, we saw striking commonalities, both in what led respondents to choose where to work, and in factors that were strongly correlated with their likelihood of staying in the profession. The most common reasons for taking a job in architecture were project quality, culture, and learning opportunity.

Meanwhile, those who said that they weren’t recognized for their contributions, that their work didn’t make an impact, and that they didn’t know their firm’s values were less likely to plan to stay in their current positions, while those who said work positively impacts clients, and who received one-on-one coaching and feedback were more likely planning to stay. This suggests that personalized attention and feedback, being able to measure one’s professional impact, and clarity around values and guiding principles are essential to employee retention.

While weBY found that most reported that their employers hired employees from diverse backgrounds, we saw that less was done to foster an environment within the firm that supported the growth and development of diverse talent, and to build a culturally intelligent organization better equipped to serve the needs of diverse client and user communities. Critically, we found that less than 10% of respondents reported that their employers discussed equity with clients, suggesting that we have substantial opportunities as a field to provide greater value to our clients by creating equitable environments that treat all users with dignity.

Equitable work environments are environments where every individual has the opportunity to thrive. An important indicator of thriving is being able TOP PREDICTORS PERCEPTIONS TOP PREDICTORS CAREER PERCEPTIONS to express career satisfaction in -a CAREER holistic way. To test this, we developed a panel of 20 questions on- career perceptions that we’ve called the Metrics of Success. These questions assess perceptions from whether a respondent has enough time to do their work to whether a respondent feels that they are a valued member of their team. We performed a statistical analysis between these MALE called a factor analysis, which allows us to see the relationships MALE questions, and to determine whether responses to certain questions are so statistically similar to responses to others that they should be considered FEMALE FEMALE to be components of the same statistical factor. This analysis revealed that there are three distinct factors in career perceptions in architecture. I FIND MY WORK MEANINGFUL AND REWARDING

FOR THE MOST PART, MY ORGANIZATION TREATS ITS EMPLOYEES FAIRLY

ONGOING FEEDBACK

The first one, Culture & Relationships, measures a respondent’s relationship to those that they work with, including peers and their firm’s management. A respondent’s likelihood of planning to stay in their current position is also a part of this factor, suggesting that relationships are key to retention. The next factor, Engagement & Impact, measures a respondent’s perceptions of their work itself, and includes whether a respondent feels that architecture is the right career for them, and how satisfied they are in their career. The final factor, Work-Life is very simple — does a respondent have enough time to do their work, and do they have enough time to pursue interests outside of work? We’ll organize the following analysis around ways that individuals MORE and firms can enhance career perceptions in each of these key areas. I FEEL LIKE A VALUED MEMBER OF MY TEAM

BACKGROUND

TOP USED WORK-LIFE BENEFITS

Our respondents reported that their employers HOW EMPLOYERS ENCOURAGE used a DO variety of strategies to promote work-life, with the most common ones being: providing autonomy in day-to-day scheduling, making work-life policies available to all employees and not just to parents and caregivers, and promoting those who utilize work-life benefits. Given the frequency with which that last factor occurs in our slides as a top predictor of success by a number of measures, it’s also worth pointing out that only 28% of men and 34% of women reported that using these benefits wouldn’t adversely impact promotion opportunities This suggests that about 7 in 10 respondents work in environments where taking advantage of worklife benefits is associated with making trade-offs in future promotion eligibility.

Finally, a lengthy survey track was established in the 2018 survey for architecture school faculty, with questions paralleling those asked of respondents working in firms and sole proprietorships, and focusing on many of the major career pinch points. The team plans to be able to share key findings on Equity in Architectural Academia in the coming months. The research team plans to share these findings on Equty by Design’s website, through an online webinar, and through in-person presentations at conferences and events nationwide. Please feel free to contact Equity by Design for further information.

NEXT STEPS EARLY FINDINGS

In addition to this topical analysis, the team will provide additional targeted analysis on a number of demographic groups. Interactive graphics similar to those created for the 2016 findings will allow individuals to examine results on the basis of personal identity and geographic location. As a part of the team’s agreements with Survey Distribution Partners,, customized reporting will be provided to participating academic institutions on the basis of alumni affiliation, to professional organization components on the basis of geographic location, and to firms on the basis of firm size.

BACKGROUND

Over the coming year, Equity by Design and the ACSA will continue analysis of the dataset, focusing on each of the research topics identified in the preliminary analysis in greater depth. These findings will be published on Equity by Design’s website through a series of “deep dive” articles, with each focusing on a single survey topic. These findings will be compiled in a Final Report, which will be issued in 2019.
