    Hello and welcome!

    Today, I have the pleasure of sharing a collaboration with Alison Mirams, former CEO and Executive Chair of Tier one construction company Roberts Co.

    Alison, is a distinguished leader with over three decades working in Australia’s largest and well known construction companies.

    Her journey, marked by resilience and innovation, has not only left an indelible mark on the construction landscape but has significantly impacted discussions around women in construction and progressive construction and leadership practices.

    Alison's rise into to a transformative figure in the construction industry is nothing short of inspiring.

    In this episode, we delve into her unique approach to leadership, the challenges she overcame, and the pivotal role she played in reshaping the Australian construction narrative.

    I hope you enjoy it.

    Hello and welcome!

    This month I sit down to speak with Rebecca Angel, Founder and Managing Director of Level 6 Venture Management.

    Level 6 is a boutique project management and advisory firm that partners with a range of high profile players in property and construction.

    Rebecca, like myself, trained as an Architect but found her passion and purpose in business building and leadership within our industry.

    She has an incredibly interesting international career journey working at Rafael Viñoly Architects and Westfields in London and also taking the plunge in starting her first business while overseas.  

    I wanted to speak with Rebecca not only because of the similarities in our training and current business models but also to learn more about her leadership insights and how she has gone about building Level 6. 

    Enjoy!

    Jock Gammon

    Hello and welcome to Business and Property Development.

    In this month’s episode I had the opportunity to collaborate on an episode with Jock Gammon - co-founder of Junglefy. Junglefy is a pioneering company that develops, builds and maintains nature-based solutions. 

    If you live in Sydney you’ll no doubt recognise the iconic One Central Park on Broadway - a residential tower that's draped in vertical gardens. That’s just one of the many possibilities and opportunities when it comes to nature-based solutions.

    Unfortunately as of late last month Junglefy has chosen to wind down its operations. At a time when we desperately need to reconnect with nature, bring nature into our cities in a significant way and make bolder moves with the integration of landscaping into all typologies, this is very sad to see.

    Despite the news we’re still sharing this conversation because of the relevance and significant value in what Jock has to say. 

    Within this episode you’ll get a glimpse of the knowledge and passion that Jock has for nature and nature-based solutions within our cities.

    So without further ado please enjoy my conversation with Jock Gammon.

Fantastic podcast in Property

Love your podcast! It’s great to see a podcast that is NSW focused as I’ve only managed to find others that are mainly active in either QLD or VIC. Very interesting and insightful.
