U.S. Commercial Property Rises For Second Consecutive Month, Moody's Says

By Brian Louis - Dec 20, 2010 11:58 AM PT

 

U.S. commercial property prices rose 1.3 percent in October from the previous month, the second consecutive monthly gain, Moody's Investors Service said.


The Moody's/REAL Commercial Property Price Index climbed 3.2 percent from a year earlier, Moody's said in a report today.


Demand is rising for the best office buildings in major markets including New York, San Francisco and Washington as buyers seek returns higher than fixed income. Investors may begin buying lower-quality buildings in major markets and top- tier buildings in secondary markets next year, said Robert Bach, chief economist for Grubb & Ellis Co., a Santa Ana, California- based commercial broker.

Look for milkshake moments

Adapted from the Milkshake Moment, Steven Little


     Leadership thinker Steven Little performs a test during hotel stays.

He asks room service for a milkshake.  If he's told it's not on the menu, he walks employees through the list of ingredients to see if they have everything. 

     "Do you have vanilla ice cream?"  Yes. "And milk?" Of course. "Do you have a tall glass and a long spoon?" Sure. If so, he tells them how to make one.  If they're willing to do it, that's a "milkshake moment." 

     His definition: When people understand their true purpose, believe it's their job to fulfill it and have the tools and freedom to make it happen, that's a milkshake moment.

     Little wrote a book about the exact moment that employees realize they can overcome stupid systems and rules and instead do the right thing for the customer and the business.

     Ask: What is your organization's highest purpose?  Are you putting people in the best position to accomplish it?  Do your current policies and systems enable you to deliver it?
