In It Together - The power of failure

30 March 2021 12:00-13:00, United Kingdom


Introduction
This is one of the In It Together series of talks to motivate and inspire everyone to shine despite our New Normal.

We have all seen and felt the effect of change, learn from those who have found resilience and adapted to turn failure into success. The speaker for this event will be Alex Fraser.

Alex’s career has taken several turns from Rugby Player, to Sports Coach, to Student, to Manager back to Student and eventually to Engineering. He uses all those lessons to shape how he approaches his work and how he tackles engineering and project challenges across the UK.

Alex is a Senior Water Scientist based in Leeds, working on projects across the UK for Jacobs. Alex specialises in Catchment Management and Blue-Green Infrastructure contributing to the CIWEM Natural Capital Specialist Panel and the regional committee. Alex works across multiple technical projects including coastal and strategies to Fluvial and Surface Water projects as well as supporting major infrastructure projects.

Alex is a lead member of the Humber 2100+ Team developing innovative solutions for the Estuary wide Flood Risk Management Strategy for the next 100 years. Alex’s role in the strategy is on the appraisal looking to balance the needs of present-day communities while adapting to the future challenges of the Humber and wider world.
