Our Health Care, Financial Services and Manufacturing and Distribution leaders join me in discussing how market forces are affecting these industries.

When talking to fellow executives, there’s something that clearly separates good companies from great companies: Having a sound and deliberate Revenue Collaboration and Governance (RevCG) strategy in place. Without it, you risk: - A poor allocation of resources (a big no-go in this economy) - Missed revenue opportunities (often standing in plain sight) - A lack of accountability (What really caused that slipped deal?) All of which will impact your org’s performance and growth. The result? Your ability to build a legendary revenue career is limited. This week, Andy Byrne is sharing the ins and outs of a RevCG strategy, so you can build a legendary career and become a top exec in your industry.

Several of our Semonin Realtors participated learning about how renewable and sustainable energy solutions are becoming increasingly important in the housing market. They learned not only how this adds value to homes but also how it aligns with the growing interest in energy efficiency, environmental sustainability, and long-term cost savings among buyers. As awareness of the benefits of sustainable housing grows and technology continues to advance, the integration of renewable energy into the housing market is likely to become even more pronounced. #WhoYoureWithMatters #SemoninStrong 💪
