Leadership for future construction industry: Agenda for authentic leadership

Research in the construction industry is beginning to pay more attention to project leadership. Current perception of construction project leaders is largely built around power, authority, and task-orientation. This is due to the traditional focus of the construction industry on technical and managerial features of construction projects. However, greater challenges of modern times and increasingly different business environment necessitate a renewed vision for leadership research and call for a change in traditional perception and mindset about leadership in the construction industry. Globalization and fast changing nature of construction have necessitated a need for project managers to have and apply different leadership behaviors, competencies and styles. To highlight the need for a new breed of construction project leaders, this paper discusses the recent construct of “authentic leadership” in the context of construction projects. Authentic project leaders possess positive values, lead from the heart, set highest levels of ethics and morality, and go beyond their personal interests for well-being of their followers. They capitalize on the environment of trust and are able to motivate people and accomplish challenging tasks. Authentic leadership possesses high potential for development as well as veritable performance of construction project leaders. Proposal made in this paper highlights benefits of authentic leadership development in construction professionals and discusses the relevant practical and research implications. An agenda for research on authentic leadership in the construction industry is also discussed in detail.     

Public versus private sector's assessment of problems facing the building maintenance industry in Saudi Arabia

In the last two decades the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has witnessed vast growth in many areas, not least in the construction industry and as a consequence the construction maintenance industry is substantial. This paper draws a number of conclusions covering, technical problems, management and administrative problems, financial problems, human-related problems and the important aspect of training. The authors conclude that the public and private sectors generally agree on the rankings described.     

Building for the future: the potential importance of the construction industry in Welsh economic development policy

Government aid offered to Wales, and largely spent on attracting foreign direct investment, has yet to provide tangible benefits in terms of relative economic prosperity and sustained job creation. The present policy focus is therefore now concerned with creating innovative solutions led by local individuals, firms and communities. New economic strategic aims and objectives have failed to attach significance to the potential importance of the construction sector in assisting this economic regeneration of regions and, in particular, the benefits that can be derived from the development of the small construction enterprise (SCE). It is argued that for the SCE to survive and grow, it is necessary both to acknowledge the role of small firms and to develop beneficial training packages. Moreover, it is imperative that such new initiatives engender an inclusive culture that meet the needs of all contracting parties and aspires to the notion of increased profitability for all.

Social capital and profits of small firms in the French construction industry

The profitability of small businesses in the French construction industry depends partly on their social capital. However, social capital yields advantages as well as constraints. How and under what conditions do social networks improve a company's profit margins? From a socio‐technical perspective and strategic analysis, we defend the idea that return on social capital is conditioned by the nature of the tasks performed and by the interdependencies among firms. Comparing about 160 businesses from four various crafts, we show that loose networks profit relatively specialized businesses working independently on construction sites, while cohesive networks benefit those businesses that are most affected by socio‐technical uncertainties.     

An overview of domestic energy consumption in the UK: past,present and future

Global contribution from domestic sector towards energy use is quite remarkable, accounting for 20–40% of total primary energy consumption in developed countries. Current predictions indicate that the domestic energy consumption will steadily increase as a consequence of notable growth in world population, everlasting technological developments, growing demand for building services and rising comfort levels. In this respect, an accurate understanding and interpretation of energy consumption data in domestic sector is of vital importance for further amendments in energy policies at the global scale. Within the scope of this paper, an overview of the trends and some key drivers that have affected domestic energy consumption in the UK from 1970 to present is presented. Energy consumption by fuel type and end use, average domestic gas and electricity use in recent years, energy consumption per household and per person are illustrated in a comparable way.     

Electronic data interchange and the structure of the UK construction industry

The UK construction industry is characterized by its fragmented nature. Information technology (IT) has had little effect on the industry, its work practices and structure. Electronic data interchange (EDI) is a standardized technology aimed at reducing the inefficiencies of trading. This paper analyses the possible impact of EDI on the structure of the industry. The main finding of this analysis is that EDI is a technology that has the capability of altering organizational interfaces to such an extent that it will change the structure of the UK construction industry.     

Framework procurement for highways maintenance in the UK: can it offer value for money for public-sector clients?

Framework agreements are emerging as a construction management tool used by public authorities to achieve value for money (VFM) services. This research aims to assess whether use of framework agreements for highways maintenance projects can result in significant improvement for performance outcomes and production and transaction costs during the construction phase. A single-case study was conducted to investigate outcomes set within the context of a major county council. Independent-samples t-tests of 164 framework and traditional discrete projects proved that there were significant improvements in performance outcomes in time (finish on time), cost (payment accuracy) and quality (defects and health and safety) resulted from the framework agreements. The independent-samples t-tests also identified significant improvements in total cost for engagement and performance monitoring but without significant changes in tender prices. Conclusions from this study support the use of framework procurement for local authority public-sector clients in highways maintenance, leading to significant improvements of performance outcomes and cost savings and hence VFM services to achieve optimal use of resources. Based on the case-study findings, an informed policy decision has been made between the county council and adjacent local authorities to implement an expanded framework agreement to cover a South East region.
