Institutions
Institutions are at the centre of professional competence and integrity. But we live in an era of great change and above all, volatility. There are challenges in Energy, Economics and the Environment.
Even in building services engineering, established design assumptions are being superceded and to solve problems we introduce more complexity.
As well as globalisation, there is increasingly free access to information in the commons - authoritative and not so authoritative - information… Show more which was once the preserve of subscription access.
Gay Lawrence Race gives her personal view of the challenges and opportunities ahead for institutions in construction.
She will also give her views on how women can flourish in construction in what we expect to be an absorbing, enlightening and highly interactive workshop.
