WHAT IS THE MONDAY MINUTE?

The Monday Minute is a global movement of 8500+ high-achievers committed to #CreatingWherePeopleLive.

These unusually driven strivers join each week to receive a specially created video packed with one BIG idea, delivered in under 5 minutes, that will give them a competitive advantage.

The Monday Minute also contains written tips, events, and links to everything going on in the American Institute of Building Design, a nonprofit association of building design professionals that specialize in residential design and construction.
