Planner pen portraits

Join the conversation

Do you think these pen portraits present a fair representation of the contemporary British planning profession? Are there any obvious missing types? Would a planner working directly for a housebuilder or for the third sector (such as an environmental charity) represent a distinctly different type to the ten we have presented here? Do you think there are different understandings of the public interest, professionalism and the purpose of planning across the different sectors, organisations and types of work that constitute the planning word? If so, does this matter? We’d love to hear your feedback.
