Leadership in the multifamily space is transforming, and there is an increasing need for an eclectic mix of considerations. By embracing Nelson Mandela’s “This isn’t Right” philosophy, multifamily types can inspire positive changes. Let’s think about how to empower your team members and create a harmonious environment for everyone involved.

The multifamily space sometimes faces challenges in maintaining solid relationships with team members, residents, vendor partners, and third-party clients, complying with countless policies and procedures. Not to mention inspiring and motivating team members. Misunderstandings between management and residents can lead to dissatisfaction while lacking focus on leadership can create a disconnect between team members and executives. These issues can affect a property management organization’s overall performance and reputation.

One powerful solution is adopting Nelson Mandela’s philosophy: “This isn’t Right.” By recognizing problems and standing up for values and principles, multifamily executives can instill a strong culture of change and innovation. This approach fosters trust between leadership, management, front-line team members, and residents, ensuring a thriving community.

Encouraging open communication between leadership and team members leads to a better understanding of needs and expectations. This collaboration results in higher resident satisfaction and retention rates. Creating a safe place for people to stand up for change when something isn’t working, is key.
