Alliance Residential thrives with its ‘Me, We, Us’ mindset

Alliance Residential is reaping industry awards and growing its influence across the nation. The property management company hit a benchmark in 2017 — surpassing the 100,000-managed-units marker — and reigns at No. 4 on the 2018 National Multifamily Housing Council’s Top 50 Largest Apartment Managers list. In the Bay Area, the company is making strides, too, earning for the first time a spot as a Top Workplace in 2018.

When talking about these milestone achievements, the company is quick to note that it wasn’t just about adding units — Alliance’s growth is a direct reflection of its associates’ growth and development both individually and as a team.

Alliance refers to this focus as the “Me, We, Us” mindset — emphasizing individual mastery of roles (me), while leveraging the power of teamwork (we) to deliver on a larger organizational purpose (us): Creating exceptional homes, unprecedented lifestyles and fulfilling opportunities.

Alliance provides its employees with Dale Carnegie Sales Advantage training, taught by certified in-house Dale Carnegie instructors. This level of training enhances sales skills by showing associates how to empathize with potential and current residents, find unique ways to meet their needs and deliver a true, quality customer experience.

Alliance’s internal learning management system allows associates to pursue a Certified Property Manager designation as part of its partnership with the Institute of Real Estate Management. Alliance foots the bill for educational costs plus offers a $10,000 pay bump once the designation is official.

In striving for an exemplary work life, Alliance imbues its workers with the ability to experiment and learn. This accumulation of knowledge provides the company with a solid foundation and the world with happier people.
