- Are You Likable? – This learned trait is more important than ever as we learn to exist in closed quarters. Shelter-in-place? You better be likable!
- Virtual Leasing still means FRIENDLY Leasing – With so much great new ideas and strategies on leasing from afar, don’t forget the genuine friendliness is always a part of any human encounter…even virtual. Especially virtual.
- Professionalism Starts at Home! – Say what? Yep, don’t forget that professionalism may be the one trait in our life most needed in our new work from home reality. Maybe it always was. Let’s talk about personal professionalism.
- Thermometer or Thermostat? – This is your choice. Everyday. Its the menu of life. What you choose makes all the difference in the world to your work team and your home team.
- Five Ideas – A Declaration of Personal Interdependence – How do you describe the kind of person our residents want to deal with right now? Don’t they want to engage with someone who has the capacity for relationship? Someone who has the ability to genuinely connect? Rick shares these thoughts for the relationship expert Landon Saunders. Definitely touch-feely.
