Episode Synopsis

Project Director Sean Stagg shares the inside story an iconic project that had theeyes of the nation on it - the redevelopment of Lansdowne Road (now Aviva)stadium. Aged just 35yrs old when he got the call, Sean experienced the “pureemotion and excitement’ of being appointed to the project, before the ‘fear’ of what lay ahead took over. But despite the challenges he faced, his firm belief in asuccessful outcome never waned.In this episode of Inside Sisk: The Legacy Series, Sean shares the highs and thelows of this landmark project and the valuable lessons he learned aboutproblem-solving, community engagement, and work-life balance.Inside Sisk: The Legacy Series explores the enduring impact of construction — not just the projects that transform skylines and cities, but the people, values, and culture that leave a lasting mark long after the work is complete. Unlike previous series, which focused on the challenges, innovations, and stories behind individual builds, this series digs deeper into what it means to create legacy. Through personal reflections from those shaping the built environment, we uncover how buildings, projects, and everyday interactions together can create legacies that last.
