Kerry Doss - immediate past chief planner of Qld

Kerry Doss has established a strong reputation as an experienced urban planner and leader during his career. Kerry has in excess of 33 years’ experience in planning & urban development in QLD & NSW.

Prior to establishing his own consultancy firm, he was the Qld State Planner for 5 years, heading up the Planning group within the Queensland Government. 

Prior to this role, Kerry headed up Brisbane City Council’s City Planning & Economic Development area for 10 years. As Brisbane’s most senior planner he was responsible for overseeing the planning of Brisbane.

I ask Kerry about:

1. What makes public service a rewarding career?
2. What is your advice to others who are navigating the political and community pressures, with the desire to deliver best practice outcomes?
3. What is the role of planners as change managers? And are we equipped to do that work?
4. What are the key issues and opportunities from your perspective in solving the housing crisis?
5. What are some of the key trends you have observed, particularly through the COVID crisis and what you think will continue into the future?

I hope you enjoy this chat :)
