Episode 250: Project Management Institute (PMI), Global director, Construction and Vice President APAC, Ben Breen on how to fix our skills shortages
Description
The Government’s promise to build 250,000 completed homes a year for the next four years, coupled with a renewed focus on defence expenditure, and significant infrastructure projects like the Brisbane 2032 Olympics, are all putting increased pressure on the construction industry.
But experts say, Australia does not have enough construction workers to meet Labor’s election promise to boost housing supply. The need for strategic workforce development and a focus on project management practices is now more urgent than ever to ensure efficient resource allocation, mitigate risks, and guarantee timely project delivery across all sectors.
Project Management Institute (PMI), Global director construction and Vice President APAC, Ben Breen joins us on TAD to help us discuss skills shortages and how they can be overcome in the built environment.
