“VALUES are<br />
like fingerprints.<br />
Nobody’s are the<br />
same, but you leave<br />
them over everything<br />
you do”<br />
ELVIS PRESLEY<br />
Being part of a large multi-national company is a huge responsibility at times.<br />
If you feel detached, you can easily get lost due to the sheer size of a big business.<br />
If the parent company provides a sense of vision and a set of values, however, the<br />
connection becomes both easier and more authentic.<br />
We find ourselves in this space as a local business.<br />
We’ve distilled our parent company’s beliefs to include our own<br />
vision and set of guiding values, and although they mirror those<br />
of a large brand, we’ve adjusted them so they reflect our own<br />
unique nuances. I know, in fact I can almost hear the yawns now.<br />
It’s so easy to be cynical about a vision or a company mission<br />
statement or any of the many seemingly ‘new age’ taglines that<br />
sit around business, but when it’s real, it feels right.<br />
And, so it is with us. It’s taken a really long time to consolidate a<br />
vision that incorporates our desire to be<br />
the best realtors in New Zealand; adding value (tangible and<br />
intangible) to our clients and to the lives of the<br />
people who make up our team. (Thank you so much, Gilbert<br />
Enoka.)<br />
Not just their working lives, but the lives they envisaged<br />
achieving when they joined us, with all those associated dreams<br />
and hopes.<br />
Business is not easy and it doesn’t get easier with the years, but<br />
every day I get up on a mission to do my best. I’d rather<br />
race to any given finish line than crawl to the start, and<br />
knowing we’ve got a reason and a vision as a company<br />
to propel us forward makes it all the<br />
more special.<br />
What’s your vision?<br />
What do you stand for?<br />
I know the answers to these questions and, to anyone in<br />
business, so should you.<br />
