Teamwork goes beyond just meeting goals—it’s about building connections, lifting each other up, and celebrating the big and small wins! ???? My team surprised me for my birthday (yes, with singing ??), and it was the perfect reminder of why recognizing each other matters. Here’s why celebrating boosts team performance: ? Boosts Motivation: Feeling valued inspires everyone to work harder toward shared goals. ? Builds Stronger Connections: Celebrating together strengthens bonds and fosters trust. ? Increases Engagement: Acknowledging wins keeps everyone more invested in the mission. ? Promotes Positivity: Recognition creates a culture where success feels exciting and contagious. ? Drives Innovation: A supportive team environment encourages creativity and risk-taking. P.S. The “Woo” at the end is this Nashville girl! ?? Let’s not just work hard—let’s celebrate hard, too! #TeamMorale #CelebrateTogether #DoBetter #LeadershipGoals

Great advice and ultra vital point to focus on in our property management industry. It truly is a battleground of responsibilities to manage those assets. Supporting our property managers is the key to thriving communities. Property managers are the unsung heroes of the real estate industry. They take on demanding roles, often facing intense situations, emotional stress, and a never-ending to-do list. The truth is—they’re human too. And just like anyone under pressure, they need support, skills, and the space to grow and thrive. Here are three powerful reminders from these insights: 1?? Understand the Stress Response: Property managers often feel like they’re in “survival mode” when dealing with high-pressure situations. Instead of telling them to “not take it personally,” we must equip them with tools and training to manage stress, regulate emotions, and feel empowered to handle challenges. 2?? Knowing Isn’t the Same as Knowing How: Many property managers know they need to stay calm and professional, but knowing how to do that in the heat of the moment is where the real work lies. Providing actionable strategies, mentoring, and education is key to setting them up for success. 3?? Connection is Crucial: It’s easy to feel isolated in such a demanding role. Creating a culture of support—whether through team collaboration, open communication, or professional networks—fosters belonging and boosts confidence. At JWA Properties, we believe in helping property managers Do.Better—for their residents, their investors, and themselves. Because when we care for our PMs, they’re empowered to take care of everything else. ?? Let’s start a conversation: How do you support the property managers in your network? #PropertyManagement #DoBetter #SupportYourTeam #LeadershipMatters #ProfessionalDevelopment #RealEstateLeadership #TeamCulture

I find very few organizations pull all of these pieces together successfully. I was going to choose my favorites and most impactful, but they are all truly integral to high performance and cohesive success. Are the leaders in your group focusing on each and every priority here? If not, bring the group together and help them understand the assignment! #leadership #teamsuccess #dobetter #management #jwaproperties #dobetter

?Do you realize how many great candidates you are missing out on if you are not checking in on your recruiting process? If your automated systems have outdated or irrelevant parameters based on the role you are seeking to fill, you are missing out on MANY amazing potential team members and leaders. ?? ??There is a story behind each "unique" resume and job history. Take myself for an example...executive leadership roles mixed with regional manager and portfolio manager roles. At first glance, it looks a little "interesting" ?? but upon a short discussion, any person I speak with understands each role was a choice based on my need to either gain knowledge for my aresenal ?????? or to contribute to a team of people in need of strong leadership ????. Sometimes that looks like a title jump forward or back, but it has grown me into one heck of a diverse leader and professional! (And helped a lot of people along the way ????) ?I do believe there are numerous bad hires vs excellent hires simply due to a more system friendly resume format, keywords, or fit of a parameter that is kicking the more qualified out of the running. And you don't even speak with them...it comes in the form of an automated system response. And even worse, it states that someone highly or overqualified is simply not qualified for the role. It is maddening to your potential candidates. ?? I am interested to know some parameters you have set to "weed out" the "unqualified" candidates...what are you making the cut with? Is it time on a job, exploration outside of their industry or a break in work history, lack of education or degree? ? Let me know in the comments what your specific experience is or settings are currently and how you plan to adapt in 2025. #recruiting #hiring #aitools #multifamily #automatedtasks #dobetter #jwaproperties
