There were eight of us: four couples, friends for years. We loved one another dearly; we were as close as fleas. It was Monday morn; it had snowed all weekend. The federal government had closed for a snow day. We all worked for the federal government. We had a day off. The phones started ringing at 10:00 a.m. “We will all meet in the lounge and have lunch together. Bring what you have in the refrigerator—anything cooked and ready to eat. We will buy fire logs to burn in the hanging fireplace.” The lounge we were to meet in was in the condominium complex in which we all lived. The gathering place was a raised platform two steps up from the floor, about twelve feet long by ten feet wide. Against one wall was a full wall-length upholstered bench. In the middle of the platform was a table about the size of two bridge tables side by side. Hanging from the ceiling and off to one side was a fireplace with a stovepipe chimney vented to the outside. Opposite the bench on the open side of the platform was a polished brass railing to keep users from falling off. And leaning against it were four cane chairs. Off to the side of the platform were restrooms—one for women, one for men; on the opposite side were three pool tables and in the same area a ping-pong table.

Innovation, Strategy and Risk in Construction integrates insights from business and government leaders with contemporary research, to help built environment professionals turn serendipity to their own advantage by building greater innovative and adaptive capacity into their operations. Accessible and full of practical examples, the book argues that traditional business strategies which seek to systematise innovation and eliminate uncertainty need to be balanced with more flexible approaches which acknowledge and harness uncertainty. The missing key to innovation, it is argued, is to turn serendipity into capability. The author proposes a simple model which allows managers to tap into the increasingly dynamic and interconnected nature of the construction industry. Innovation does not occur in isolation within individual firms, but through collaboration. Each stakeholder in the construction industry has a responsibility to drive innovation, and this book will be key reading for consultants, contractors, subcontractors, suppliers and clients, as well as policy makers and all serious students of construction management.
