On this episode of Real Estate for Breakfast, host Phil Coover and guest Kapil Khanna, CEO of Lamar Johnson Collaborative (LJC), discuss some of the design challenges that the architecture firm faces in a changing world. As part of an integrated design practice with its parent company, Clayco, a full-service, turnkey real estate, architecture, engineering, design-build and construction firm, LJC has a competitive advantage in its understanding of the intersections between design and construction. In addition to discussing LJC’s background and overall design process, Phil and Kapil also talk about the many challenges that have arisen in the architecture industry due to the pandemic. Specifically, they discuss the supply chain and how LJC’s scale allows the company to prioritize and plan strategically to navigate the ever-changing world. Kapil also explains the concept of resiliency planning, which includes anticipating a building’s capacity to adapt to changing conditions and to maintain or regain functionality in the face of stress or disturbance. Along with sustainability, resiliency planning is another important design parameter, and Kapil shares examples of designing vertical agriculture and massive 40 acres greenhouses.Since the year is winding down, Kapil also takes the time to reflect on some of LJC’s recent projects, such as a Macy’s Flagship store, Pfizer’s Midwest headquarters and Fulton East, a newly constructed 12-story office and retail building. He says LJC is optimistic about 2023, especially as industrial projects are increasingly in demand. As CEO of LJC, Kapil Khanna focuses on overall firm management. A member of the executive leadership team, he is responsible for providing direction for both the business strategy and the implementation of initiatives to support the firm’s growth. Kapil works across all disciplines of the enterprise to seek out opportunities for greater alignment and integration, and to make positive impacts on the firm’s most complex projects. A veteran of the design industry, Kapil has provided project management on some of the region’s largest and most complex projects for healthcare and academic systems, including Cook County Health &amp; Hospitals System’s Stroger Hospital Central Campus, University of Chicago Medicine Center for Care and Discovery Parking Garage, Orange Regional Medical Center Outpatient Care Center and Cancer Center Expansion; as well as extensive projects with higher education and healthcare facilities across the U.S. prior to joining LJC.

Integrated Design with Kapil Khanna, CEO of Lamar Johnson Collaborative

In this episode Jean chats with Kapil Khanna to chat about his journey from India to Ireland and how all contributed to the All Ireland Business Foundation Originally from Delhi in India, fate brought me to Ireland in 2009 (I followed my heart!) where I’m now raising my family &amp; making a positive impact for 100's of Irish businesses.  Immigrating to a country in the depths of a recession was not an easy start for anyone's career. The only person I knew at that time was my wife.  My past work exp with fortune 500 MNC's, my values (&amp; a bit of luck) helped me to re-start my career in Ireland.  Quick fact: My first position in Ireland was an unpaid internship as a management consultant at Galway (I commuted daily from Dub-Gal!).  Those initial struggles &amp; failures given me a different perspective of business/life &amp; made me the person I am today.  Over the last 12 years, I devoted myself to the study of business and entrepreneurship.   Fast forward to 2020, I am fortunate to be able to mentor &amp; support over 400 Irish businesses in gaining strategic clarity &amp; moving their business forward.  My belief is that its important to leave a legacy and build something that is greater than oneself.  In 2013, I left my job and started my entrepreneurial journey with Elaine Carroll. We started with a modest 250 delegates at the inaugural All-Ireland Business Summit at Croke Park in 2014. Fast forward to 2019, we welcomed more than 900 business leaders!  Under the guidance of our board, we officially launched The All-Ireland Business Foundation (AIBF). The AIBF is an independent national accreditation body that identifies, acknowledges and supports the country’s most ambitious and visionary business leaders.  As the awarding body for Business All-Star Accreditation Quality Mark🏅, it identifies and recognises best-in-class Irish businesses that deserve recognition for their trust and customer-centricity. Check out ☆ www.businessallstars.ie  Since 2014, over 3,000 companies have participated in our initiatives. The Foundation also hosts the annual All-Ireland Summit and quarterly forums while promoting peer-learning and collaboration among it’s accredited companies.  With over 400 accredited companies in the TRIBE- we are on a mission of empowering entrepreneurs to realise their ambitions and seize the opportunities Ireland offers.
