  • Hitting Your Olympic Peak Performance: Turning Strategy into Gold-Medal Winning Results
    Feb 26 2026
    Overview

    Join award-winning podcasters, multifamily technology innovator Kerry W. Kirby, CEO of 365 Connect, and property management expert Ernest F. Oriente of PowerHour®, for a another exciting segment of the MultifamilyBiz + PowerHour Webcast Series. This exciting episode explores what it truly takes to transform vision into victory in today's high-stakes multifamily housing environment, defined by shifting market dynamics, margin compression, regulatory pressure, and rising renter expectations. Kerry and Ernest will break down how elite organizations align strategy, technology, leadership, and culture to consistently outperform their competitors.

    Discussion Highlights
    1. Define Your Olympic Path
      Elite performance does not happen by accident. It is built through disciplined strategy, measurable milestones, intentional system design, and daily execution. Leaders must clearly define what their professional "Olympic journey" looks like — the standards, habits, technologies, and accountability structures.
    2. S-O-A-R-I-N-G Is Measurable
      By the end of 2026, high-performing organizations will not rely on feelings — they will rely on indicators. Revenue growth, leasing velocity, operational efficiency, employee engagement, renter satisfaction, and margin expansion will clearly demonstrate whether a team is truly soaring or simply staying afloat.
    3. The Competitive Landscape Is Shifting
      Market volatility, regulatory changes, AI acceleration, renter expectation shifts, and cost pressures are redefining how multifamily operators compete. Leaders must anticipate disruption, embrace calculated risk, and proactively adjust operating models to remain agile, resilient, and ahead of the pack.
    4. Leadership Becomes Performance Coaching
      Peak-performing organizations are built by leaders who coach with clarity and conviction. Setting expectations, reinforcing accountability, investing in development, and aligning teams around a shared performance standard creates a culture where excellence becomes the norm — not the exception.
