Do you feel undervalued by your employer? If so, make a change!

Do you feel undervalued by your employer? If so, make a change!

If they don’t value you enough to do everything they can to retain you, do what’s best for you. The Multi Family Industry is like a revolving door with employees, companies truly need to recognize how to prevent this.
Value being the key word!

Know your worth, it’s an important part of maintaining a healthy lifestyle physically and mentally.

Feeling unappreciated at work can lead to increased stress and anxiety. If you fall into that category, take the initiative to either turn things around or make a career shift. “Destiny is no matter of chance. It is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved."

The last quote about destiny, is absolutely AMAZING!

Important to remember that sometimes the grass is greener on the other side because it’s over a septic tank. There are great days and horrible days in our business. Even if you work for the best company, it’s still work which is why it’s not called vacation.

In the current market, there really isn’t a reason to stay where you aren’t wanted. I’ve been in bad workplaces and it really can crush your soul.

You can’t thrive personally, professionally, or financially where you’re undervalued. Finding a company that brings out the best in you will have the result of showing you your true value. This isn’t always monetary. Maybe your value is tied too closely with a position that you’re ready to move on from. Maybe your value is tied to certain tasks that you enjoy because you’re good at them.

Look at your employer and ask yourself: How often are they putting people in roles based on where they can thrive because they enjoy the work?

If you don’t think it’s often enough, then it’s time to move on. I’m on the vendor side now feeling truly fulfilled, but I was able to find similar fulfillment with certain companies when I was still on-site and it’s the way I ran my teams.

Leasing consultant loves marketing? Here you go, boo, you’re the key player in our marketing efforts. Assistant Manager wants to grow? Bet! Let’s cross train! Groundskeeper is an avid reader? Let them start a community book club that *they* run with your residents.

Valuing people has a lot more to do with seeing them for what they are in more ways than just how they can contribute to your bottom line.

Communication on both sides is important. If there is something wrong tell somebody

Maybe the advice should be “Talk to someone about it”. If it can’t or won’t get resolved then maybe a time for a change.

Thank you for this wisdom this morning!
