With a global pandemic, supply chain challenges, rampant inflation and labour shortages, it’s been a tough couple of years for the building business—even at the big end of town. Fletcher Building (FBU) CEO Ross Taylor joins Frances Cook to find out whether the industry’s turned a corner, why FBU’s strategy is all about sustainability and why people keep asking about his career batting average. 

Shared Lunch is a conversation with experts, CEOs, and you. Each week we alternate between an interview with a company leader and an industry deep dive. Episodes are hosted by BusinessDesk journalists including Frances Cook and Dan Brunskill.
