As a result, the ASFE was founded and helped these engineers not only lower their insurance rates, but get to the point where, by 1980, they were the least liability-prone members of the design profession. Now, John Bachner and the ASFE tell all other design professionals how to accomplish the same task. This book, which incorporates the ASFE's Introduction to Professional Practice program for advancing architects' and engineers' knowledge of professional practice issues, addresses almost every aspect of the design professionals' practice as they relate to liability, from procedures for verifying the accuracy of technical output to steps for improving client and project selection, workscope development, personnel training and dispute resolution.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eProfessions, Professionals, Professionalism.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Professional Engagement.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Executing a Professional Commission.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Professionals and the Law.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Contracts for Professional Services.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Professional Liability Insurance.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Professional Risk Management.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Dispute Resolution.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Basic Economics of Professional Practice.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Professional Human Resources Management.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Professional Services Marketing and Business Planning.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Professional Business Development.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Communicating as a Professional.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Civil engineering, surveying \u0026amp; building [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Civil engineering, surveying \u0026amp; building\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Civil%20engineering,%20surveying%20\u0026amp;%20building%20%5BTN%5D%22\"\u003eTN\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Interscience","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52293502796056,"sku":"9780471522058","price":126.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780471522058.jpg?v=1781642721","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/practice-management-for-design-professionals-a-practical-guide-to-avoiding-liability-and-enhancing-profitability-hardback-9780471522058","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
