Hi friends, need advice. Just found out my manager is resigning. I’m not supposed to know, however I know exactly what will happen when they leave - typical agency bait and switch. Proper coverage will not be put in place, I will be left to hold the account together and to be honest, I’m not up for it. I’m burnt out and the client is a beast.

Should I stay or should I go?

As realtors, our worst and best friend are the contractors, being friends with the contractor that remodelled a home you are going to sell is a plus because you can know for sure what kind of improvements were made to the house and why; and what kind of things are pending to be improved, that way you can provide real information to the client. You know what they say: a happy client always comes back to you.

Hi All,

Recently got the opportunity to "grow our ESG/CSR" practice at a small regional consulting firm, due to my recent grad certification in sustainable strategy. Wondering where I should focus us as a services industry for big impact - we have a large product innovation, engineering area, and know in the past we've had a lot of lip service to clients and only recorded ESG for their compliance.

Hoping to make a big difference and include CSR/Sust audits for our client projects! Any tips?

More so, I’m finding it hard to just keep my head down and focus on what I’m bringing to the table when I see people delivering sloppy work and phoning it in as I’m pushing to be super buttoned up.
