Why Playing It Safe Is Holding Housing Innovation Back
Why Playing It Safe Is Holding Housing Innovation Back with Stewart Davison
In this episode of The Impact Room, Michelle Ansell is joined by Stewart Davison, Managing Director of Elehan Consulting and Founder of Proptech Peer Group, currenlty Vice Chair of Elim Housing.
Stewart shares his deep insight into how the housing sector can and must evolve to meet today’s challenges.
From launching his own SME peer proptech network to calling out the sector’s aversion to risk, Stewart brings a bold and human-centred perspective on innovation. He talks about the urgent need for culture change, psychological safety for intrapreneurs, and rethinking how we approach digital transformation and customer value in housing.
“If we want people to innovate, we’ve got to make them feel safe to fail, safe to try. Otherwise, we’re just managing projects, not creating progress.”
Whether you're in housing, proptech, innovation, or leadership, this episode is essential listening.
