AI is no longer a buzzword in property development. In this episode, Dave Cummins breaks down what AI is, where it is already being used and how it can improve design, delivery, safety and sustainability.

Why it’s important?

Leadership is not about job titles or hierarchy. It is about responsibility and the willingness to influence decisions across design, procurement, delivery and building operation so projects deliver better outcomes over time.

Why is it important? Because construction and buildings carry a major environmental footprint, and the decisions made early can lock in costs, performance and impact for decades. Dave unpacks how strong leadership shifts teams from minimum compliance to maximum value, improving energy and water performance, supporting healthier indoor environments and creating long term benefits for clients and communities.

This episode explores the role of urban development in shaping healthier, more resilient cities. From walkability and green infrastructure to transport, density and inclusive design, it examines how the way we plan and build cities directly affects wellbeing, equity and environmental outcomes.

Why it’s important

With most of the world’s population now living in cities, urban development decisions shape climate impact, public health and social connection at scale. When done well, urban development can reduce emissions, improve quality of life and strengthen communities. when it is done poorly, it deepens inequality and environmental harm. The choices we make today will define how cities function for generations.
