Building Blocks: Building professional careers in property management

by Ben White

In a fast changing service industry, the most important asset of any lettings and property management business is the ability to attract, retain and develop the best people.

A successful team is always greater than the sum of its parts and achieving a good dynamic requires deliberate planning and hard work. An agency must define the roles in the team and ensure that the strategy is supported by recruitment, induction and career development processes. Most importantly, the agency must develop and nurture a culture that defines how the team works together.

Building Blocks explores these concepts and sets out a framework for assessing the health of a team and identifying the areas to work on to move a team forward. The accompanying workbooks allows the development of actionable career plans for each member of the team that include a roadmap for each person to develop their career competencies.

Building Blocks is for those agencies that are looking to improve the way their teams work and the way careers are developed in the business. These businesses seek to become platforms on which the best in our industry can build their careers, effectively becoming agencies of attraction in the process.
