East
Midlands-based Construction Leaders Club has been recognised for its high
professional standards by the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB).
The team
has become what is believed to be the only business growth, leadership and
management development organisation for the construction industry to be awarded
the new Chartered Building Consultancy status.
Construction
Leaders Club has held the accolade of Chartered Building Consultancy status for
the past three years but the CIOB asked holders to re-apply after setting down
new and tighter rules for compliance in a bid to drive up standards within the
sector.
“I am very
pleased that the Construction Leaders Club has met the more stringent
conditions required to gain Chartered Building Consultancy status from the
CIOB, which reflects the exacting and ethical standards that we follow in our
training programmes, coaching and consultancy,” said business
growth expert Terry O’Mahony, who runs CLC.
“This
accreditation gives individuals and companies in the construction sector,
whether they are large firms or small organisations, the confidence that they will
receive the most professional support via our services and expertise.”
The Construction Leaders Club was
established in Nottingham three years ago by Terry as a networking and business
growth organisation supporting businesses and individuals related to or
associated with the UK construction industry. As well as monthly networking
events, CLC also runs development programmes and workshops for individuals
including a Mastermind Programme, aimed at business owners and senior decision
makers, and a Rising Stars Programme for high potential individuals who want to
step-up to the next level.
Terry has
warned that although businesses and individuals in the construction sector
appear to be very busy currently, they should aim to keep an eye on the future.
“I get the impression that many people working
in construction at the moment are running in circles, fighting fires and having
to deal with all manner of other problems and so they find it difficult to get
out of the office to learn how to build their businesses or careers,” he said.
“Few of them are planning for growth properly not to mention preparing for the
next recession or crash. But time out of the office to plan is crucial.
“In my experience, business leaders are not
always really sure how to address the question of business planning so they
just carry on as normal, not really wanting, or expecting, more out of their
business or are just happy to receive what the market gives them instead of
paving their own path. Coaching or training could really help.”
The next Construction Leaders Club networking
events take place on 9th March and 13th April at The Grill at
Twenty Five, 25 Bostock’s Lane, Long Eaton, near Nottingham. For more details or to book visit http://www.constructionleadersclub.com/
