Join us for an insightful conversation with Tony Battle, former co-owner of Kind & Co, as he shares his experiences in the construction industry. From his early days as a quantity surveyor to leading a major contracting firm, Tony discusses the evolution of building performance, the shift toward Passive House construction, and the challenges of running a business in an ever-changing industry.
We dive into key topics like the impact of COVID-19 on construction, the importance of trust and collaboration, and why licensing and professionalism are crucial for the industry's future. Tony also shares his thoughts on modern methods of construction (MMC), risk management, and how the Building Safety Act could be a game-changer—if taken seriously.
