As the landscape of infrastructure investments continually evolves, one key principle remains vital: improving operational performance. Successfully doing this requires a systematic approach, anchored in these three fundamental principles: 1.) Focus on end-to-end value creation. Drive this creation throughout every touchpoint of the investment cycle. 2.) Adopt a comprehensive view. Learn to consider every operational lever within the value creation framework. 3.) Establish prerequisites for success. Implement oversight mechanisms that foster a culture of high performance via clear expectations, accountability, and incentive systems. #ValueCreation #OperationalExcellence #Leadership

Explore a free teaching case being taught in our negotiation program at Harvard University this week, supported by Bloomberg Philanthropies and the Bloomberg Center for Cities at Harvard University. It’s easy to assume that #negotiation is a solely interpersonal activity that only takes place at the table. But a broader understanding of the process—specifically the scope and sequence—can impact the outcome. The case features a city leader who needs to win back the trust of the World Bank and convince it to increase its funding.

Major infrastructure projects have a transformative potential through a culture of openness and trust. These projects often face challenges in delivery, timescales, and finances, thus necessitating a vital shift in perspective. To create a robust outcomes-led foundation, collaborative leaders must let go of the need for immediate answers. Instead, they should empower teams by posing the key question "why" and managing trust collaboratively. Tolerance for ambiguity becomes crucial, demanding leaders to listen and solve problems in an outcome-focused manner. When coaching and collaborative ethos are employed, leaders establish a culture of openness and trust. Such an approach, more asking than telling, maximizes the chances of success by enabling teams to respond to stakeholders and find optimal solutions. How can leaders balance the need for clarity in major infrastructure projects, to ensure long-term success? #Infrastructure #Leadership #ProjectManagement #OutcomesFocused https://ow.ly/IR8Z50Qw3ho

🏗️The Construction Leadership Council (CLC) sets out its ambitious delivery plan for 2024 👇 Preparing industry for the Building Safety Act, improving productivity, reducing carbon emissions and supporting biodiversity will be the priorities for the Construction Leadership Council in 2024. The Bi-annual Report of the Council also highlights key outcomes delivered by the Council last year, including: ✅ New competence frameworks for roles required under the Building Safety Act; ✅ The launch of a strategy to eliminate the use of diesel by much of the sector; ✅ Consulted on a biodiversity roadmap; ✅ An updated PAS 2080, including guidance for buildings alongside infrastructure ✅ Established an expert group to take forward the development of the Information Management Mandate (BIM 2). The CLC also successfully made the case to protect tens of millions of pounds in R&D tax credits that had been in jeopardy because of proposed HMRC rule changes late last year. Following CLC intervention, the new approach will ensure that genuinely innovative construction businesses can continue to claim this vital tax credit, helping to support a more productive sector.
