🌟 Today’s Secret Weapon: The Unbeatable Culture at Colliers In our series highlighting the secret weapons of our success, today I want to talk about something intangible yet immensely powerful – our culture at #Colliers and specifically at the Pittsburgh Office. 🌐 Culture is a subtle force; you can't touch it, and it's hard to measure, but you definitely know when it's great. And at Colliers, it's not just great; it's extraordinary. It's something I am immensely proud to be a part of – our team, our office, our company. 👏 A big shoutout to those who have cultivated this amazing culture. First and foremost, John "Lord" Bilyak John Bilyak SIOR, CCIM (If you know, you know). Our field general, John, has created a high-energy environment where the entrepreneurial spirit thrives, backed by the support of a large organization. It's a place where collaboration isn’t just encouraged; it's the norm. 🤝 Then there are the two individuals I interact with more than anyone else – Matthew Reder and Willis Croker. These guys are simply amazing. Every day, I am energized by the prospect of working alongside them. Their tireless effort and dedication are nothing short of awe-inspiring. Matt and Willis, your contributions might often go unsaid, but they are always deeply appreciated. The value you bring to our team and the clients we serve is immeasurable. I couldn’t ask for a better team. Thank you for putting up with me! 💼 This culture of collaboration, energy, and entrepreneurial spirit is what sets us apart at Colliers. It's not just about doing business; it's about building a community where everyone is empowered to succeed. 🚀 After a whirlwind 2023, our sights are set on even greater achievements. We're embracing the mantra "Doing More in '24" and gearing up to "Thrive in '25." The best is yet to come, and with our unparalleled team spirit and culture, there’s no limit to what we can achieve. 🎄 Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all. Here’s to continuing our journey of success and collaboration in the years to come! #ColliersCulture #Teamwork #CommercialRealEstate #Pittsburgh #ThankYou #MoreIn24 #ThriveIn25

"We don't think like a small company. We are here to change the world." 8 years after we started, we have moved into our own space, that fully reflects the expansiveness of our thinking, our aspirations, and our ambition to make a big difference. We started out in our bedrooms, graduated to our friends at the Hive, moved to our partners at PlatformE, and just before COVID19 stuck to JustCo in Marina Square. Coming out of restrictions we found a flexible arrangement that allowed the team to operate under [very] flexible conditions. We have experienced the boundaries of what teams require. Now, it's time to remain flexible, but also tighten the ties between our team members. Families thrive even when they are remote, but do so with much more fun, trust and seamless ways of working when we can come together in person. Our new place in The Concourse will do exactly that - and from what I hear from the team, it's been doing it so much faster than I was expecting. And while the view is worth a million dollars, we remain frugal and cost efficient, more so than if we would have by going back to a co-working spot. So what's not to love! Looking forward to welcoming our friends, partners and clients here. Come and enjoy the view. Think expansively with us. Break barriers, and ceilings like we actually did during the lion dance. Let's progress together. The Future is always bright, but it needs work. #home #family #office #expansive #thinkbig #breakceilings #opening #forwardthinking #Innovation #strategicforesight #corporateinnovation

A fancy new office space might make for a great Instagram photo, but it won't define a strong company culture. Real culture goes beyond aesthetics and starts with leadership. #CompanyCulture #LeadershipMatters #Engagement I recently had the chance to catch up with an old friend who built a start-up into a European powerhouse in just 15 years. They've got a stunning new office in the Hafen City, overlooking the Elbe, but what really caught my attention was how they run the show. As COO, he knows all 400 employees by name and walks through the offices every day, engaging with colleagues. It's not about the fancy view; it's about breaking down the ivory towers. #EmployeeEngagement #Motivation #ResultsMatter 🌟 A great workplace is a fundamental need, but what keeps employees truly happy, motivated, and committed is a culture that values them, their ideas, and their well-being. It's about being heard, appreciated, and feeling like you're part of something bigger. 🚀 So, before we get carried away with the aesthetics of a new office, let's remember that the heart of a thriving company culture is authentic leadership, inclusivity, and creating a sense of belonging. That's what gets people amped to step into the office every day and give their absolute best. #Leadership #Inclusivity #CompanyCultureMatters

Those of you who’ve worked with me will know that I love a good analogy. So, when the opportunity arose - on the official day of love - to link my day to day world of culture building and matters of the heart, I simply couldn’t resist. I therefore wrote a little article and it happened to be published! If you’d like to give it a read, here we go: https://lnkd.in/eFvs_MmB 💕 #culture #culturebuilding #peopleandculture 💕

In the bustling offices of TechSolve Innovations, the air crackled with ambition and a relentless pursuit of success. At the helm of this corporate ship was Mark, a manager whose unyielding desire for control was unmatched. Every morning, Mark strode into the office with a commanding presence, his eyes scanning the room like a general assessing his troops. His management style was firm, his directives clear, and his expectations unambiguous. To Mark, control was not just a preference—it was a necessity. As the days turned into months, a sense of unease settled among the employees. Mark's need for control began to overshadow any sense of collaboration or creativity. Decisions were made swiftly, dissent was quashed without hesitation, and autonomy was a luxury few could afford. Despite the discomfort, Mark's power-hungry approach yielded results. Projects were completed on time, targets were met, and the company's bottom line flourished. Yet, beneath this facade of success lurked a workforce stifled by fear and resentment. One day, as an important project deadline loomed, a young employee named Sarah dared to speak up. She questioned Mark's rigid approach, suggesting a more collaborative and inclusive strategy. Mark's response was swift and severe, dismissing her ideas without a second thought. But Sarah's words sparked something within the team—a flicker of defiance against Mark's iron grip. Slowly but surely, whispers of change began to circulate throughout the office, challenging the status quo and demanding a more balanced approach to leadership. As the winds of change gathered strength, Mark found himself at a crossroads. Would he continue to cling to his need for control, risking the alienation of his team? Or would he embrace a new era of leadership, one founded on trust, collaboration, and mutual respect? In the end, Mark's journey taught him a valuable lesson: true leadership is not about asserting control but about empowering others to reach their full potential. And as the walls of control crumbled, a new spirit of innovation and camaraderie breathed life into the once-stifled halls of TechSolve Innovations.

Ah, the allure of the top floor. The pinnacle of corporate success is where CEOs reside in corner offices with panoramic views, and executives make high-level decisions that shape the company's future. Many young professionals dream of working at a large company's head office and are ambitious and impatient in pursuing this. But behind the glossy facade of corner offices and executive perks lies realities that few fully comprehend until they've experienced it firsthand. I call it the "tyranny of the top floor".

Embracing Appreciation for Stronger Bonds At Nimble, we believe in fostering a work environment that goes beyond the conventional. I’m not sure when it started or who within our team that initiated this, but over the years we have developed a heartwarming practice – hugging one another. While this might seem unconventional in a professional setting, the impact has been remarkable. Building Stronger Connections: Hugging co-workers, team members, and staff has strengthened our bonds, creating a positive and supportive atmosphere within our teams. Organizational Benefits: Showing appreciation through physical gestures like hugs has translated into increased morale, improved communication, and a sense of unity among our diverse teams spread across Shanghai, Hong Kong, Ho Chi Minh City, Singapore, New Delhi, Istanbul, and Helsingborg. Global Footprint, Local Impact: Nimble's unique approach to global operations is mirrored in our internal practices. As we embrace the value of connection, our teams are better equipped to collaborate seamlessly across continents, aligning with our commitment to small business principles on a global scale. Sustainability Beyond Products: Nimble isn't just about developing innovative and sustainable products. Our commitment to sustainability extends to our workplace culture, where appreciation and camaraderie contribute to a positive and nurturing ecosystem. Beyond Boundaries: Our core value of "No Boundaries" isn’t limited to workload alone. It encompasses breaking barriers in communication, fostering a culture of openness, and embracing unconventional yet impactful practices that elevate our work experience. Seizing Opportunities: The hugging initiative is a testament to seizing opportunities for positive change within our organization. By encouraging our teams to think beyond conventional norms, we're constantly innovating not just in our products but also in our work culture. Daring to Connect: Our commitment to "Daring" isn't just about taking risks in business but extends to creating a workplace where individuals feel comfortable expressing appreciation in unconventional ways. Let's celebrate the power of appreciation, connections, and the ripple effect it creates within our organization.  #NimbleTeam #AppreciationCulture #WorkplaceConnections #SustainabilityInAction
