Feedback is a new buzz topic. In the construction industry receiving and evaluating feedback information and from the lessons learned, recommending improvements is now recognised to be of great value. No longer is information and advice and guidance only filtered from the top to the trades, but as mentioned, it is now recognised that there is great value in listening to the man on the ground because they are the experts in their fields and their voice needs to be heard. Receiving that information and passing it up through the management system so that the information and advice can be evaluated and where appropriate, taken on board and adopted for use as new company practice and procedure, is now being adopted by forward thinking companies.
This unit is all about obtaining feedback information from operational activities, investigating evaluating that information and recommending improvements to be adopted as company practice and procedure. So, whom as a site manager does one get feedback from? The answer to this question is simply everybody. A good construction site manager will wish to be seen as someone who can be approachable and can receive information, because whether it is a security guard, a brick layer’s labourer, a fork lift driver or trade, they all have professional expertise and opinions. It is now recognised that in their own world, they are the experts at that task on the ground at that time and what they know is of great value. A construction manager informed in this fashion is a better manager as he or she is then able to make better informed decisions.
