Module 02
Developer's Playbook: Part A
Your unique background and skillset make up your profile as a developer. Your character, education, and experiences all work together determine your unique approach to thinking about property and naturally make up your strengths and weaknesses.
Like a fingerprint, your personality leaves a mark on each project you work on. This applies to all areas of your work, from the way you come up with a new project idea to the way you put the funding together. Your individual style is what makes you unique in the industry and should be seen as a strength – something to build on.
There are a lot of considerations before getting started in real estate, and in this program, we hope to establish your profile in a way that tailors your experience to suit your personality.
Personality Check
There is a part of your background that has attracted you to the property industry in the first place, and this gives us a clue as to your individual development style.
For instance, when you think about setting up a project plan for a new development, do you have a more business-minded approach? Perhaps you come from a financial or project management background. Your thinking suggests that you are a good manager but perhaps need a little creative support from a project partner or a strong project architect.
Do you rely on your instincts to push on with a clear vision of your end goals, or do you prefer a more cautious approach based on market research and careful analysis of the pros and cons? Your answer could be helpful in determining your risk profile, and the degree of financial exposure that you are comfortable with.
