About the Author

Michael Dallas grew up on a farm in Sussex in the period of post war austerity in the 1950s. He was educated at Sherborne School and Cambridge University, gaining degrees in Natural Sciences and Chemical Engineering. This background gave him a very practical view on life, appreciating value, abhorring waste, needing to innovate and manage day to day risk. His career has involved building Dams, Pipelines and Water Treatment Works, manufacturing fibre reinforced concrete products and extensive Project Management. In the late 1980s he first encountered Value Engineering and quickly recognised its potential to address many of the key issues of successful project management and its close relationship with Managing Risk.
