The concept of Complete Constructive Change represents the transformative journey that both individuals and organizations can undertake—evolving from one state to an entirely new one, much like a building that has been beautifully refurbished. This powerful idea, inspired by the renowned figure Malcom X, has been a driving force for Nii Klotely Quaye of Quaye Services.
In our latest episode, we sit down with Nii to explore his remarkable five-year business journey. We delve into how he has successfully grown his business to serve an impressive roster of clients, guided by his inspiring philosophy: “It’s impossible until it’s possible.” His story is a testament to the power of resilience, innovation, and strategic thinking.
Hosted by Faith Locken and proudly sponsored by A’lake Limited, this episode offers deep insights into one of the fundamental aspects of refurbishment and development—quantity surveying. It’s a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding how transformative change can drive success in both business and the built environment.

Property Development Book Club
The Property Development Book Club (“PDBC”) is a collective of property professionals who hosted discussions historically on Clubhouse, around various topics relating to the property development industry in the UK. The group consists of architects, quantity surveyors, structural engineers, planning consultants and development managers who have a vast amount of experience working on mixed use developments in the UK and abroad. Previous topics include, Public Private Partnership, Development Appraisals vs Planning Appraisals, amongst others.
PDBC was born out of the pandemic, the group felt that there was an opportunity to bring value through conversations on the many facets of building, in an online forum. Clubhouse was a natural starting point for the various conversations led by members of the PDBC. The Clubhouse group now has over 900 members, and our aim is to continue to create professional, lively and relatable property development content that will inform, trigger and inspire, while growing our followership.
