The response of the RICS’s governing council has only inflamed the rebellion. Last month it finally bowed to pressure and said it would set up an independent review after all. But a publication date has not been announced; meanwhile Fontana and Tompkins’ strategic review looking at membership engagement only late last week posted an email address for feedback.
In a statement, it said the review will “assess the progress of existing strategic activities, focusing on member experience, membership value proposition, attracting diverse talent to the profession, enhancing the reputation of RICS globally, governance, thought leadership and embedding RICS standards”.
