Description
A focus on people and good human resource practices can help accelerate change within the construction industry. CIRIA brought together 16 organisations to review the issues identified by the Latham and Egan reports. They found that the tendency for construction companies to be led by engineers, architects and surveyors with little formal training in people management has prompted a focus on improvements to the construction process rather than on better HR practices. This guide focuses on the people-related issues that impede change, identifying the nature of problems afflicting an organisations, their causes and possible solutions.
