Collaboration for Change: Reading

Closing the Performance Gap

On 28.04.16 Paul Morrell made a presentation to Constructing Excellence Oxford, concerning the Inquiry into the future of professionalism in the built environment/construction industry. Paul chaired the inquiry, and was assisted by a multi-disciplinary Commission Panel of five professionals who debated the issues with ten leading industry institutions. The report explored the key issues facing professionals and their institutions at this ‘moment for change’, a moment arising from globalisation, agglomeration, the ageing industry and a degree of disaffection from the newly qualified.

In collaboration with Constructing Excellence Berkshire and hosts Peter Brett Associates, we are delighted to invite you to the 11th event of our 2016 calendar to discuss the Performance Gap and listen to The Edge update members on the progress made and then hear first hand Constructing Excellence Oxford’s working groups progress on this key challenge for our industry.
