Breaking News- Misty puts a twist on Diversity Exercise!

Hey there......so, I did the "Communication" what's your style exercise with my team today. I did it a little differently than it called for, but at the end our discussion I had them rate me(I left the room). I wanted to see if my impression of how I communicate is consistent with how my team sees me. It was very interesting. One of the things that really popped out at me was that for the most part, everyone percieves that I am on the "louder" side(when speaking), that I am not a very "touchy" person(meaning I don't physically touch people very often), that I have very good eye contact, and my pace is what they consider "rapid fire".

Food for thought......next week, I am going to give those who want to step up and have the same thing done an opportunity too. Interested to see who raises their hand and wants to be aware of what their peers are thinking of how they communicate.

Hey Mike,

After reading the blog about Natalie and how well she is doing this month I wanted to comment about Nadia. She has 21 leases so far and 2 coming in the mail. That makes 36 total for the property so far this month and we're not done yet :). Can we say "Meadow Creek Rocks?" What a GREAT team we have here.

Mike- Natalie is killing it. She has 16 leases for this month. Moreover, we have 28 leases for the months so she has more than all the office team combined. WOW! She tells me her goal is 20 and will not rest until she makes her goal. Can you say...Natalie is ROCKING PORTLAND?

Positive Feedback letter from Carolyn Callaghan at LaSalle to Dave Brix

Wendy Allen
Manager
LaSalle Apartments
15021 SW Millikan Way
Beaverton, Oregon 97006

Dear Ms. Allen,

After residing at LaSalle Apartments for over one year, I wanted to express how much I appreciate all the hard work our maintenance crew does each day to keep our complex looking attractive and neat. The plantings are well chosen and very pleasing to the eye.

Dave Brix is one employee I have noticed taking care of large and small landscape details that really makes the difference and maintains the beauty and harmony of the complex. He will be walking through the complex and notice a cigarette butt and pick it up immediately or stop his cart and pick up after one of the many pets that haveleft is deposit on the lawn. He was quick to trim a hanging branch so that it would not brush against the face of a resident. He is there to dry up a wet spot where someone might slip and fall and keeps our trash rooms tidy.

Dave never misses a chance to say a quick hello as you pass by. If you are driving, immediatley his hand goes up with a wave.

I know whenever I see Dave, he is hard at work making LaSalle the place we love. It is the little things your workers do that make us all feel at home while living at LaSalle. His work needs to be commended. Please let him know how much we appreciate him.

Yours truly,
Carolyn Callagan

Portland, OR - Meadowcreek scores some Resident Praise



The email below is from a resident at Meadowcreek recognizing the Insanely Great Team! Way to go!

Hi Mike,

From: Sherry Meadowcreek Apartments


Mike I have lived at Meadowcreek for 4 years. I have enjoyed the attention
And expert staff we have now as leasing agents, mananager, and maintenance staff.

I receive attention to miscellaneous items needing repair, almost instantly, and receive follow up calls from the team to see if satisfied.

I would like to congratulate you on the newest staff we have now, All are courteous, and professional.

Brian, especially, as well as all maintenance staff are great. I have a small dachound 3 years old, and they are careful not to let him out of the apartment when they visit when I am not home. (I have a new G.E. range mine never worked properly for 4 years, in the self cleaning department, so they ordered me a new one, and I love it. I receive call backs also to see if I am satisfied.

Please pass on to your staff that I am very pleased with everyone. Good Job on your decisions to hire for Meadow Creek, this is one of the best teams since I have been here for 4 years.
