Enterprise Alignment

Enterprise Alignment
(Formerly "Aligning Real Estate and Business Strategy")
(MCR Required)

 

BLL  

 

This seminar’s theme is: "the business of corporate real estate is the business of the business." Knowing the business's core drivers and processes is the foundation for developing real estate portfolio and workplace strategies. To be successful, CRE executives must become more proactive, process-oriented, strategic, and linked to business unit goals.

Effective corporate real estate management today goes well beyond delivering facilities on time and within budget. It requires understanding how the real estate portfolio of the enterprise can match and serve the corporation's business model, work and culture. Effective corporate real estate management develops asset portfolio scenarios and workplace strategies based on an understanding of the relationships among physical space, worker/business unit productivity, corporate strategies and corporate culture.

To accomplish this requires extensive relationship management with business units and integrating occupancy (CRE), connectivity (IT), financial acumen  (FIN) and management policies (HR) based on a firm understanding of how individuals and teams actually do their work, and how that work may, in turn, be influenced by this bundle of infrastructure and support services.
