Two years ago Linda Stevens joined The Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) as Head of Client Development to take forward work that Mike Foy - OBE, MBA, FCIOB, FCMI. started in his year as CIOB President. In that time, Linda has developed our Client Strategy with the goal of understanding client needs and delivering digital resources to support them. This is also in the context of helping clients understand that they can have a hugely influential role in bringing about positive change - as Mike said during his presidential year, “clients are key to all our big challenges as an industry”, including the drive to raise quality standards, the push to achieve net zero, encourage innovation and deliver greater diversity.
We’ve made much progress in a relatively short time:
- We have dedicated client web pages offering a range of free resources for different types of clients, including guidance documents, market insights and case studies
- Through our 29 strategic partnerships we're engaging with clients in a number of ways, e.g. panel discussions, industry events, presentations, roundtables. Our three client roundtables on the challenges of meeting net zero have been shared as blogs on our website and in the media
- Our 22 Client Champions – experts in their sectors – support us in various ways and we’ve just published the first three of a planned series of interviews covering quality & safety, procurement, net zero & whole-life and project delivery, among other things. You can find them on our YouTube channel - https://lnkd.in/ensYdCTg - or on our website: https://lnkd.in/ekcDKnMK
Thank you 🙏 to Linda for all her hard work in getting us this far and many thanks to all our Client Champions for their ongoing support:
