Presentation Overview

What is the relationship between leadership, management and administration? Management theory, based on engineering principles but relevant to any business. Principles of investigation, analyses and decision making which support leadership and management are described. These principles will then be applied to a typical building project from conception to completion. Reference will be made to areas where cash flow is eroded and legal risk arises. The fuzzy edge between professions must be addressed.
