Over an 18-month period at the height of the pandemic, GI Hub tracked infrastructure-as-stimulus announcements by G20 countries and found a clear aspiration from governments for infrastructure investments to deliver outcomes beyond job creation and economic growth.
鈥淕overnments are trying to create greater transformation by also targeting environmental sustainability, resilience, inclusivity, technology adoption and research and development,鈥 explains Global Infrastructure Hub Chief Executive Officer Marie Lam-Frendo.
鈥淭he stimulus spending announced is about $3.2 trillion. Coupled with business-as-usual infrastructure spending and greater leverage of private investment in infrastructure, we have an opportunity to take a major step towards transforming infrastructure at scale and boosting and diversifying its outcomes for all of society.鈥
The need for infrastructure to deliver greater outcomes has never been more urgent, according to 网曝吃瓜黑料一区二区三区 Vice President Global Program Management Bryan Harvey, who says climate challenges, growing levels of inequality in society and the COVID-19pandemic are all pulling into sharp focus the need to 鈥渂uild back better.鈥

鈥淚nfrastructure can lead in transforming our lives, communities and places 鈥 natural, built and digital 鈥 for the better and leadership, at all levels, is the key to unlocking its full transformative potential.鈥
The paper, titled Beyond the Baseline 鈥 Part 1: Leading infrastructure teams to deliver transformative outcomes, outlines 13 skills and attributes current and emerging leaders need to lead the charge on realizing transformative outcomes through infrastructure. It also outlines a range of measures that can be implemented at a jurisdictional/organizational level or program/project level to develop the required attributes of the leadership group.

The paper is the first in a series of three to be released exploring how infrastructure solutions can be conceived, planned and delivered to 鈥渂uild back better鈥 and, in doing so, help address some of the world鈥檚 largest environmental, social and economic challenges.
