With over 5 million square feet of office space across Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina, 75+ team members & thousands of tenants, the company I co-founded 40 years ago, BECO, was a runaway success. But at the start of 2019 a realization hit me like a ton of bricks. We were missing something huge…The future of work didn’t start with ping pong tables & snack rooms it started with: Strong relationshipsFulfilled employeesShared resourcesAligned goals By investing in cutting edge offerings, amenities and promotions we made life better at work for tenants *and* employees. For me, the future of work is clear: Give people tools to lift their barGet them to experience new thingsFulfill their life mission, not their work mission Be in the trenches together (even if that means answering my cell on a Saturday night!) After over 40 years in business I am often asked, “Why bother? Why not kick up your feet & relax?”My answer? I believe everyone is put on this earth for a reason. To fulfill their life’s mission. If my team and I can create a space where individuals can dig deep, build grit, burst through barriers at work & build confidence along the way I can’t imagine doing anything better.
