A recent study by McKinsey found that the average life-span of companies listed in Standard & Poor's 500 was 61 years in 1958. Today, it is less than 18 years, with nearly 50% failing in the first 5 years…jumping to 80% before year 20. Today Property Masters Inc celebrated our 20th year in business (6/14/2004) with a little party @ our HQ!!! 🥳 The rest of the team was there in spirit! There have been many highs and lows, but over the years we have learned how to turn our disappointments into opportunities to improve, and those improvements into wins for our trusted partners & clients. With each year we’ve gotten stronger, smarter, and more determined to surpass the higher goals we set for ourselves. It hasn’t ever been easy, but nothing worth having ever is. 😉 I’m so proud of my amazing team of colleagues and what we’ve built together. Whether you’re at year 1 or been along on the ride for all 20, this celebration belongs to you! To our amazing clients & trusted partners and vendors…THANK YOU doesn’t seem like enough!! We owe this all to you & couldn’t have gotten this far without your support! You all are the real MVPs!!! 🏆 Anyone can swing a hammer, but they won’t succeed at scale and longterm without being made up of a group of people that put the value in the team over the individual. Our culture is second to none, and for that reason… and about a dozen or so others… I have no doubt that we will be celebrating these milestones for years to come! Cheers to 20 years guys! 💚💚💚 #propertymasters #greendiamondservice #construction #sfrturns #shinebrightlikeadiamond #sfrrenovations #reorenovations 💎

Thanksgiving, is not a global holiday nor is it a popular celebration in every American household... However, if we were to unpack the celebration, and dissect the purpose & value of reflection and giving thanks, there's a few lessons that apply beyond this annual celebration. Turkey Day Take aways that can be applied to our jobs, workplaces, and even the employee experience. 1. Who do you save a seat for at the table? - Are you intentionally creating space & opportunities for those that would otherwise might not get a chance... 2. What are you contributing to the celebration? - Beyond the great wine & tasty food, personally, I always come prepared with stories to share & memories to reminisce on. Similarly, bringing your full self FIRST is a great opportunity to model what vulnerability in the workplace and on your team could & should be like. 3. How are you navigating the "hard" or (un)comfortable conversations? - Not everyone will have the same opinion, however, there MUST be group agreements to create safe spaces for ALL to show up authentically & feel free to SPEAK UP! You don't want a table filled with all the same opinions nor do you want a monoculture that does not encourage nor celebrate individuality & diversity of thoughts and culture. Do you have any lessons learned at Thanksgiving that are parallel to organizational culture & behavior? #vulnerable #leadership #safespace #speakup #culture #purpose #belonging #dei #organizationalculture #organizationalbehavior

When we think of Hispanic culture, cuisine is one of the first things that comes to mind. But what does food have to do with marketing?? Incorporating elements of Latin American culinary heritage into marketing campaigns not only resonates with the Hispanic audience but also reinforces the value of cultural diversity and inclusivity in brand storytelling. 1. Storytelling Through Food: Hispanic Heritage Month is a time to celebrate the rich cultural tapestry of Hispanic and Latinx communities. Brands can use this occasion to tell stories about the cultural significance of food, its history, and its power to unite. Highlighting iconic dishes like tacos and their symbolic value can create engaging brand narratives. 2. Embracing Diversity: Just as Latin American cuisines represent diverse cultures and histories, marketing campaigns can emphasize the importance of diversity and inclusion. Brands can share stories of their own diverse teams and their commitment to embracing and celebrating cultural differences. 3. Connecting Through Culinary Experiences: Brands can leverage the popularity of Latin American food in the U.S. to create marketing campaigns that connect with the Hispanic audience. Whether it's promoting authentic recipes, partnering with Latinx chefs, or sharing personal stories related to these cuisines, there are various ways to engage with the community during #HispanicHeritageMonth. Don't miss this *delicious* article from our friends at Delish celebrating Latin American Kitchens. https://lnkd.in/gkCaJQbT

Laissez les bons temps rouler! 🎉🎷 As we embrace the vibrant spirit of Mardi Gras, it's a reminder of the joy that comes from truly letting ourselves dive into new experiences. But behind every dazzling parade and mask, there's a story of preparation and the support of a community that makes all the difference. Embarking on a major transformation in life can feel a bit like preparing for our own personal Mardi Gras. It's not just about the decision to change; it's about setting the stage, ensuring we have the right environment, and, most importantly, the support system to help us navigate the journey. Just as a Mardi Gras parade requires musicians, artists, and countless others to come to life, transformational journeys require a network of support. Coaching is that behind-the-scenes crew for your personal parade, offering guidance, accountability, and the encouragement needed to make your career goals not just a dream, but a reality. After all, Mardi Gras isn't just an excuse for a party, but a preparation for a journey of personal and spiritual transformation! As we enjoy the festivities, let's remember that every significant change starts with a single step, and the right support can turn that step into a stride towards success. Let the spirit of Mardi Gras inspire you to prepare for your transformation with the joy and support it deserves. 🎭✨ #Transformation #Support #MardiGrasInspiration #CoachingJourney
