With the blink of an eye, 2016 is nearly complete. As we
look back at 2016, it was the year of the unexpected, a year
of growth and the year of the underdog. It’s fitting that
2016 was our first year as the new Cushman & Wakefield
and, quite honestly, it was a success. This year, we’ve
established our brand, made momentous strides in client
attraction and retention, had many game-changing new
hires to strengthen our team and overall, we’ve made a
name for ourselves in the global marketplace.
We are starting 2017 with a strong global team in place.
Our regional leaders will continue paving the way for us in
new areas such as technology, business intelligence and
innovation – our limits are infinite.
Read through this edition of The Occupier News and take
a look at the last quarter. Our team won top industry
awards including the Best Facility Management Service
Provider of the Year in Singapore and the Corporate
Real Estate Team of the Year Award in California. We
highlight colleague collaboration, showcase what our team
members do outside of the workplace, and ask a few of our
professionals what their goals are for 2017. We also feature
our involvement in the two Global CoreNet Summits in
Philadelphia and in Amsterdam. All of this makes me proud
to lead such amazing talent across the globe and to be a
part of Cushman & Wakefield.
Cheers to 2016 and best wishes for 2017!
Best,
