Cliff Smith, Executive Director for GIRI (and a fellow Fellow of the Institution of Civil Engineers) talks to Mark of the role that GIRI plays and the opportunity that awaits the brave or the motivated. Cliff talks about the need for leadership and competence throughout the supply chain and the growing role of technology to help support these initiatives. The message of collaboration and awareness through training is a valuable lesson for all.
