2 INSIDE Harcourts recognised as the finest in real estate – by our team, our business partners and of course, our clients. We have a huge opportunity in front of us. Themarket is certainly changing with significant uncertainty for us all – but these are the very times we excel in – when professionalismand strength aremost in demand and needed. With our roll out of industry leading websites, the transition to VaultRE gainingmomentum, the revamped H360 reporting and business analysis giving us even greater insights and the launch of the Harcourts Hub bringing it all together in one place, we will have the very best operating systemof any organisation in themarket. Put that together with the very best people – the individual effectiveness of the Harcourts team remains ahead of the industry – and you have an unstoppable force. For us all to achieve our goals and aspirations and truly live our very best life is the opportunity we all have right now in front of us. I can’t encourage you enough to embrace the people and resources around you – embrace the opportunity that is in front of each of us, be the best person that you can be and these next 12months will be awesome! I really look forward to sharing the journey with you all. My decision to semi-retire in 2019 has not worked out as intended! In fact, I have been an abject failure at retiring. What I have learnt over the last three years is that youmust wake up every day with passion and purpose. That being focussed and challenged, growing every day, is a critical part of me livingmy best life and being the best person that I can be. So, a change in plan and strategy was needed! The leadership rolewithin any organisation is a vital but challenging position. Leading theHarcourts Group is nodifferent andhas in fact expanded and grown increasinglymore complex as theGrouphas grown. With the significant commitment beingmade to improve our operating technology systems and the resulting roll outs, coupledwith the current global environment, this has never been truer than it is today. To increase the impact and effectiveness of our Harcourts leadership structure, I have decided to return full time towork in the Harcourts Group. I will be returning tomy former leadership position as Managing Director of the Harcourts Group, effective the 1st of September. Steve Caradoc-Davies has been doing a tremendous job andwill continue in his role as CEO for Harcourts International. He will work alongsideme to deliver the leadership, support and resources that will ensure our corporate teamcontinues to deliver on their responsibilities and that the wider Harcourts Group continues to grow and provide the very finest experience for our clients. The combined experience and energy will ensure Harcourts has the most committed, focussed, and effective leadership teamof any real estate group. One plus one definitely equals three. I believe this is a really exciting step forward for our Group, one that will ensure we achieve our vision of the Harcourts experience being Mike Green Managing Director, Harcourts International BACK TO THE FUTURE!
