HomeClub looks at hundreds of articles every day. We choose the best ones to share with our readers. This gives you a quick look at what's happening in the home improvement industry. The article below is one we picked. Diverse leadership is key to driving innovation and growth in any industry. The Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance (FGIA) has taken a significant step in this direction by welcoming three new members to its board of directors, as reported by Door and Window Market [DWM] magazine. Scott Corley, Christopher Giovannielli, and Stacha Reed bring a wealth of experience from various sectors of the fenestration industry. This move, facilitated by recent changes in FGIA bylaws, allows for more flexibility in board composition while maintaining broad representation across product and market segments. Such strategic appointments demonstrate FGIA's commitment to adapting to industry needs and fostering a more inclusive leadership structure.

Thank you to the firm leadership and employees. I cherish daily the opportunity to work with such great professionals and stewards of the Bradford Commercial Real Estate Services brand. We are in a “what have you done for me lately” business. Our successes are many, may I share a Bradford success-story “top ten” list? Along with a few of my many soundbites….   1) Extensive Market Reach: Bradford has leased and sold over 150MMsf of CRE assets since inception. 2) Strategic Local Presence: Solely operating in DFW, Bradford is approaching 20.0MMsf of asset assignments; leasing, brokerage, and/or Property Management relationships. 3) Investment Velocity: Our HNW Investment Management Program is in full bloom. Fund IV is in an active capital raise. https://bit.ly/3YRwaT1 4) We check the boxes: The Firm averages over 600 CRE transactions annually. Bradford is a “groundswell” of market reconnaissance.  5) Private, Connected in DFW: We are a DFW “boutique” among giants, CBRE, Newmark, CushWake, and JLL. Similar DFW legacy firms, private, local leadership, is our domain. 6) Need Deal Flow?: We have a “crop-duster” mentality. Low to the ground, visible. A deal flow machine. 7) We invest in our Peeps: Bradford’s 401k, an employee benefit not largely available to firms our size, is at an all-time participation and valuation highs. 8) Boutique you say? The Firm has completed over $1.0B in leases, sales, acquisitions, and developments since its inception.  9) We have Tenuritis: Our average employee tenure exceeds 20 years of employment with Bradford.  10) It’s the System: Details Matter. Performance Counts. We wake up each day wearing our reputation on our sleeves, thinking about our clients and their assets whilst carrying the Bradford Flag.   #Bradford #Dealflow #Tenuritis #Leadership #CommercialRE

Some of my thoughts on #ownership and #accountability "Own the problem, even though you didn't cause it. You need to get over your ego for that." "My successes are yours and your failures are mine." "Most people do not rise the occasion in crisis, they sink to the level of their training and preparation." Of all the leadership-of-self competencies, I rank Accountability as the first amongst equals. If someone is accountable then they will strive for others: self-awareness (cognitive and emotional), learning, sense and decision making, and resilience.
