LMNOP (Leadership, Mentoring, Networking & Opportunity for A&D Professionals) is a New York City-based professional development and networking society organized by and for those within the A&D community whereby members can connect, support, and mentor each other. Sparked during the 2009 economic downturn by a small group of professionals, and rapidly growing to more than 160 members in less than six months, LMNOP's mission is to strengthen design professionals with the business skills required to remain competitive and relevant in the industry. Reaching across all occupations within the A&D industry, LMNOP has developed into a formalized organization that provides personal, hands-on training, workshops and mentoring opportunities to nurture leadership skills for the industry's leaders of tomorrow.
