COULD GEN Z SOLVE THE HOME BUILDING INDUSTRY’S SKILLED LABOR SHORTAGE?

While most people are familiar with Millennials as a workforce and their impact on the economy, a new cohort is coming of age. People of Generation Z were born between 1995 and 2012 and the oldest members of the group are already in their early twenties and entering the labor market. They make up a quarter of the U.S. population and a third of the world population. In order for businesses to survive the next few decades, they’ll need to cater to Gen Z not only as customers, but also as employees. This leaves some residential developers wondering whether Generation Z could solve the home building industry’s skilled labor shortage. This post analyzes the new workforce, what new home builders can do to attract and keep Gen Z workers, and how builder structural warranties can make a construction business thrive.

OUR GRANDMOTHERS ARE THE LARGEST GROWING LIST OF INDIVIDUALS ON THE SOCIAL HOUSING WAITLIST. HOW DO WE PREVENT OUR DAUGHTERS BEING THE SAME?

If a nation’s greatness is measured by how it treats its elderly and vulnerable, Australia is set to fall shamefully short.

Women aged over 50 are the fastest growing group of people at risk of homelessness in this lucky country, with a 30 per cent rise in the number of grandmothers, mothers, aunts and sisters sleeping in their cars, couch surfing or accessing crisis accommodation since 2011.....Link in bio

WOMAN OF THE WEEK
Name: Barbara Goffioul
Position: Founder
Company: Chicken Without a Head, Belgium

What do you enjoy the most, working in the field of construction & development?
There’s nothing more concrete than construction and development; you literally see rising what you have contributed, and human beings will never stop building!

What are your biggest achievements in your field?
My plan is to be living by the sea, visiting clients 2-3 times a week, having rounds of candidate interviews 4-5 times a month and working remotely from home the rest of the time. As I am currently following a master class on movies scenarios at the European Writing Institute, I hope that in 5 years I will have finished a script on my experience as a woman in construction and development, and get it produced
If you could write a letter to a 13-year-old ‘you’ what would you say?
Don’t worry, it will be fine, and you will get anywhere you dream. Don’t try to be like everybody else and don’t pay attention to what others say, most of them will be on the first step of the ladder when you will reach the moon. Singularity is your absolute strength!

What are 3 skills you have had to develop to get to where you are presently?
Adaptability
Perseverance
Resilience

INDUSTRY RESPONDS TO BRISBANE DESIGN STRATEGIES

The Property Council has provided a submission in response to the consultation documents produced in relation to the Brisbane City Council design strategy.

Public consultation has recently been held on Design-led City – a design strategy for Brisbane and the draft New World City design guide – Subtropical homes for a Brisbane lifestyle.

The Design-Lead City document sets out the draft priorities and design values for development and infrastructure projects, and outlined potential strategies to support, regulate and reward the implantation of these characteristics in Brisbane projects. The Property Council has broadly supported the development of a design strategy for the city through its submission.

The draft New World City design guide – Subtropical homes for a Brisbane lifestyle provides advice and support to encourage quality design of townhouses and apartments up to five storeys. While supporting the design principles, the Property Council noted that each development site is unique and will have different challenges and opportunities that will require a range of design outcomes and trade-offs.....Link in bio
