Change and change management will always present new and sometimes scary challenges. We'll never be perfect, but the core values and holding ourselves accountable to them no matter our title or location are what's important. Thank you for a good reminder here and I'd encourage you to use your voice to shape your expectations with every interaction you have.

It's not great to hear that experiences around you don't fall in line with your expectations as a provider of housing for so many people. I'm hoping you can reach me directly to have a quiet conversation around the events that drive your feelings. Shoot me a message at Nick.Morrison@Cardinalgroup.com and let's get the conversation started.

I could go into the data here around pay equity and market analysis for each market, but it's not what I think you want to hear here. What I can go into though is an ask: With the change happening in the world which is going to escalate quickly, I want you to use your voice and turn to your team leads with the facts and data they would need to stand behind you and your concerns. Together, we can make a difference, but it takes us placing critical thinking in the forefront.
