The Power of Partnership in Corporate Real Estate
Lessons From H&R Block
In this episode of The Team Around the Table, we continue our conversation about the power of partnership—this time, with one of our own most enduring relationships: our 25-year partnership with H&R Block. Cushman & Wakefield’s Shannon Koenigsdorf is back, and she joins H&R Block’s Shawn Moore, to share their journey through the complexities of managing the 6,600 corporate locations within H&R Block’s vast real estate portfolio.
Shannon and Shawn explore how H&R Block navigates the unique challenges posed by their seasonal business model. They shed light on their approach to handling hundreds of remodels and renovations, and how they leverage data and predictive analytics to optimize their operational footprint.
Shawn offers rich insights into the symbiotic relationship between real estate strategy and delves into the pivotal role played by a dedicated Corporate Real Estate (CRE) team to ensure seamless operations and continuous improvement.
This episode is a deep dive into the power of partnership, strategic thinking, and the importance of agility and flexibility in the ever-changing landscape of CRE.
