BUSINESS VALUE IN GREEN BUILDING Survey

BUSINESS VALUE IN GREEN BUILDING

1. PARTICIPANT INFORMATION SHEET

I am a student of MSc Project Management in Sheffield Hallam University. I am researching to incorporate policy level aspiration of sustainability into the green building development rhythm of business. I would like you to take part in a short questionnaire which should only take 5-10 minutes of your valuable time.

The aim of this questionnaire is to make explicit the sustainability relevant to the stakeholders. This creates a holistic approach that allows the values associated with sustainability to emerge within the commercial environment of the building industry.

The questionnaire is carried out for academic purpose and all the information provided is strictly confidential. Upon completion of the research, the report will be sent to you for your information and reference. Your cooperation and helpful participation is highly appreciated.

Please do not hesitate to contact me at 0755 199 3540, or my supervisor, Professor Paul Stephenson at 0114 225 3214 and/ or email address p.stephenson@shu.ac.uk should you require further information.

Appreciate if you could complete this and return it to me before 1st January 2010. Look forward to receiving your completed questionnaire.

Thanks with regards,
Davis M. H. Tan
