John Bale worked in the construction industry before embarking on an academic career which included roles in the UK and elsewhere. He held an industry-sponsored professorship of Construction Management for many years, and is now an emeritus professor of Leeds Metropolitan University. He has also served as an elected city councillor. He was President of CIOB in 2000-01, and is a member of the Board of Trustees. He describes his work on the definition of Construction Management as ‘the culmination of a long-term obsession.’
