LEADER Magazine's May 2011 edition isn't out yet, but I've just proofed it and have to say, what a great reflection of CoreNet Global members' leadership roles in key areas like retrofitting the existing building stock, managing the sophisticated cap-ex behind the greening of existing facilities, and even how location strategies have become the new 'sweet spot' for sustainable practices. Check out my
Industry Tracker 'sneak preview' on this important new trend based on 9 of every 10 location decisions involving some aspect of sustainability, featuring location expert Jay Biggins.
I might also mention, there are at least two other excellent examples coming in the May LEADER showing other forms of enterprise leadership. One is how we are increasingly taking the point on mergers and acquisitions inside global enterprises - a story featuring Nokia and CBRE. Another is how Cisco's CFO is using real estate and workplace to drive value, collaboration, innovation, risk management and growth - all at the same time on a impressively-integrated global scale.
So don't miss out on this excellent content when you get your May LEADER in the mail, probably right after the
Chicago Midwest Global Summit.
One footnote, if you'll allow, speaking of playing leadership roles with the business: My friend and industry strategist Rob Osgood of Flad Architects, shares his viewpoint on
'Getting to the C-Suite by Actually Working with the C-Suite.' It's a 'must read' you should look at soon!
