Description

Product Description Across the AEC industry, the non-technical skills possessed by organisations are key to their overall performance. In this study, the particular importance of optimising the so-called "soft power" of organisations, is addressed. Things like organisational culture, responsible corporate behaviour, and building trust-based relationships with other stake-holders are seen as facets of a broader organisational capability, and the advantages of this strength are also explored. The internationally conducted research behind this book will provide readers with new insights into effective management, from both inter and intra organisational perspectives. This unique and important book is essential reading for researchers and advanced students of construction management. About the Author Sai On Cheung is a chartered quantity surveyor by profession. Before joining academia, he had substantial experience in contract administration with both consultant office and construction contracting organisations. Building on these experiences, Professor Cheung established the Construction Dispute Resolution Research Unit (CDRRU) and has developed research programmes in organisation issues in construction, contract and dispute management. He has also published widely in these areas. He has received two CIOB awards for his research in construction partnering and use of information technology to minimise dispute. A collection of his research in dispute management was published as the research monograph Construction Dispute Research in 2014. In addition, Professor Cheung is a recipient of the 2010 City University of Hong Kong Teaching Excellence Award.
