  1. While at the annual members forum in June last year I had the pleasure of accompanying Mark on a casual morning walk to Carlton hill in Edinburgh, on the way we discussed the industry and how it has changed over the years and how we see it evolving in the future. Great to see that the CIOB are forward thinking and realise that there are too many awarding bodies that claim to represent the industry but are nothing more than a registration scheme that has gained momentum. More focus and Kudos needs to be given to the Professional bodies especially when it comes to government directives and direction lets hope the industry can shine in the coming decade and beyond.
    Ps lets not forget ever industry has it’s hotter storylines and those are often the ones that get cast up not all the others that have been outstanding. We need to learn from the failures. It’s funny as I was watching The Towering Inferno over Xmas and the exact same issue was the cause as we have today “ the client driving down costs and contractors saying OK” time to say NO the price is the price rather than giving a poor product that is destined for failure
    Happy NEWYEAR to all in the industry

  2. Additionally CIOB needs to understand its relationship with its female members. How it interacts, speaks and includes them is vitally important in ensuring they see a place for themselves in both industry and CIOB.
