In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with my friend Andrew Hoffman, professor at the University of Michigan and author of 19 books, to talk about his latest, Business School and the Noble Purpose of the Market. Andy's journey is remarkable, from his early days as a carpenter to becoming one of the most respected voices calling for a rethinking of social benefit enterprises and business education.We dug into why today's business schools must evolve beyond outdated shareholder-first models and start preparing leaders to take on the big challenges of our time—climate change, inequality, and rebuilding trust in institutions. Andy makes a compelling case for how markets, when properly guided, can serve a noble purpose. He also shares a vision for how universities, government, and business can better align to drive meaningful change.If you're part of a regional ecosystem, a university, or simply someone working to make your corner of the nation work better for more people, Andy's insights offer both a critique and a clear path forward. I hope this conversation sparks ideas—and more importantly, action—in your own work.AMCC's podcast is made possible in part by the expertise of Mike McAllen, founder of Podcasting4Associations.

Shoot us a Text.Monday morning and we're rolling heavy into this week as we explore how Hurricane Helene impacts auto dealerships' insurance, the  launch of IONNA's EV fast-charging network, and why October is now a major sales season for retailers like Amazon and Walmart.Show Notes with links:As natural disasters like Hurricane Helene become more frequent and severe, and with Hurricane Milton facing down Florida's gulf coast, insurance companies are reassessing their risk models. Auto dealerships, in particular, face unique challenges in protecting high-value inventory and managing insurance costs in the aftermath of such storms.Andrew Hoffman, a professor at the University of Michigan, says these decisions will likely reflect trends, not just isolated incidents like Helene.He noted that auto dealerships may need to implement additional storm-proofing measures to secure insurance coverage.Meanwhile, some auto dealers are banding together to help those affected. The Jim Ellis Automotive Group in Georgia launched a relief campaign, collecting essential supplies like toiletries, canned goods, and baby formula for Helene-impacted residents in North Carolina.The group, in partnership with a vendor, filled a 36-foot trailer with supplies for affected areas and plans to make additional supply runs as recovery efforts continue.IONNA is taking EV charging to the next level with the opening of its first "Rechargery" in Apex, NC, offering ultra-fast chargers and customer-friendly amenities.IONNA is backed by eight major automakers, including BMW, General Motors (GM), Honda, Hyundai, Mercedes-Benz, Kia, Stellantis, and Toyota and its first Rechargery will feature 10 fast chargers capable of up to 400kW, serving both CCS and NACS users.The Apex site, once an old gas station, symbolizes the transition from fossil fuel to electric energy infrastructure.Amenities include a lounge with WiFi, food, coffee, and outdoor, pet-friendly spaces for drivers to relax while charging.IONNA plans to build 30,000 fast EV chargers across the U.S. by 2030.Amazon's October Prime Big Deal Days introduces unexpected holiday sales items, such as chainsaws, as the company seeks to expand holiday shopping earlier. Other retailers, like Walmart and Lowe's, are joining in with October deals, offering steep discounts across various categories.The event is seen as a strategic move to encourage Prime members to spend more and clear out less popular July Prime Day items like camping gear, yard tools, and chainsaws.A survey by Optimove Insights found that 67% of shoppers expect to feel overwhelmed by holiday marketing messages by November 1, especially with so many sales happening at once.“There is a risk of holiday marketing fatigue,” said Sky Canaves, retail analyst at Emarketer.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

Dive into the world of activity coaching with Andy Tima and Andrew Hoffman as they take the "Coach's Spotlight" to share their fervor for empowering others through effective coaching strategies. For Andy, the joy lies in celebrating the victories of new advisors and witnessing their triumphant success. Andrew, on the other hand, finds delight in witnessing the transformation of confidence, comfortability, and conversational prowess during coaching conversations.Sabine underlines the profound satisfaction of offering advice that resonates years later, marking this as a job of delayed gratification. Heather reminds fellow coaches that building a sterling reputation takes time, yet the impact is enduring. Both Andrew and Andy agree that nothing dampens their spirits more than caring more about their reps' success than the reps themselves. Heather offers a tactical approach by asking reps to explain their choices, fostering personal ownership.Discover the untapped power of coaching and personal growth in our upcoming episode as we reveal the "why" behind actions and share game-changing coaching questions. Let's celebrate success, no matter how small. So, tune in to uncover the passion and wisdom of Andy Tima and Andrew Hoffman.Episode Highlights:03:55 - I absolutely love just being there and being able to celebrate their wins and to see their success. I'm a total nerd right up front, so I love when they are starting to see and be reminded of the ratios and all the Granam numbers and they're starting to see that, "Hey, I'm finally understanding this business. I'm finally gaining some momentum." I love just being a part of that, and that's probably one of my favorite things of being an activity coach.07:50 - It's always nice, too, like when I've had reps that have come, they've succeeded, they've gone through activity coaching, and then these new reps are coming in and they're like, "When you're meeting with Tima, make sure you take him seriously, make sure that you show up and have everything because he's here to help and he's here to help you succeed."24:56 - That's the beauty of the business, like you can begin again every day. And I find sometimes you can see the burden lifted from people when you say that, because now they're not trying to play catch up.

Hey Smarties! We’re taping today’s episode of Make Me Smart live from Seattle. We’ll have the show in your feeds soon. But for now, enjoy a rerun of one of our favorite episodes of the year so far. With all the rage tweets about gas stoves, it may be hard to believe, but climate change wasn't always so polarizing. Studies show that public opinion on the topic started to splinter in the 1990s, when governments and corporations had to reckon with the threat of a warming planet. “Prior to 1997, it was a conversation among a bunch of scientists, but once the Kyoto treaty came, it became an issue that affected powerful political and economic interests,” said Andrew Hoffman, professor of sustainable enterprise at the University of Michigan and author of “How Culture Shapes the Climate Change Debate.” On the show today: Hoffman explains how climate change became a partisan issue, the financial and economic interests that got us to where we are today, and what might get us back to some common ground. In the News Fix, guest host Amy Scott tells us about an ad campaign bringing attention to gender bias in internet search results. Plus, we'll explain why classified documents in surprising places is more common than you might expect. And stick around for the TL;DR on Elon Musk's trial over what he said about Tesla on Twitter (the social media platform he now owns). Later, we'll hear from a listener who did the math on the cost-effectiveness of fueling up with diesel vs. gas, and a loyal listener makes us smarter about our own theme music! Here's everything we talked about today: “Climate Science as Culture War” from the Stanford Social Innovation Review A widening gap: Republican and Democratic views on climate change from Environment: Science and Policy for Sustainable Development “For Earth Day, key facts about Americans' views of climate change and renewable energy” from Pew Research Center “Politics & Global Warming, March 2018” from Yale Program on Climate Communication “How the humble gas stove became the latest flash point in the culture wars” from The Washington Post “Wyoming lawmaker behind electric-vehicle ban says he didn't mean it” from The Washington Post “The business opportunity that is climate change” from Marketplace “Correct The Internet & DDB NZ on a mission to highlight bias against women's sport” from The Drum “Global ‘Correct the Internet' campaign launches to make sportswomen more visible via DDB NZ” from Campaign Brief “Classified Documents Found at Mike Pence's Home” from The Wall Street Journal “Elon Musk Securities-Fraud Trial” from Bloomberg It's a new year, and we're looking for new answers to the Make Me Smart question.

Welcome to a special segment of the Uncensored Humanity Podcast we like to call American Honesty. During these shows I will have two co-hosts; Andrew Hoffman and Jake Bible. On the American Honesty segment we like to discuss topics that society has deemed inappropriate. Our goal is to just get our opinions out in the open for a discussion. We believe that the ability to talk about these tough topics is seriously lacking in today's society, as people seem to get offended too easily.   It's been a while since we've recorded an episode of American Honesty as we all got burnt out with politics recently. The three of us got together for dinner and drinks a few weeks ago, as we hadn't seen each other much. We decided to record an episode as long as we didn't talk about politics. So what did we talk about today?? Of course, politics. We started off the show talking about politics and the upcoming presidential election. But then we switched gears and started talking about self discipline and making out lives better. We are all on our own journeys of making our lives better and there was definitely lots to talk about there.   American Honesty is a project that Jake started a couple of years ago. So now using the podcast as our platform we are going to carry on the project that Jake started. Hopefully it will lead to some good conversations that others can enjoy as much as we do.   Jake is one of our regular guests on the podcast as he loves to have these interesting discussions with anyone. Jake is very much involved in local leadership with Medina Leadership. He is one of my co-hosts for the American Honesty segments on the show. He's always wanting to bring people on the podcast so they can share their opinion about the controversial topics we all like to cover.   Andrew is one of my closet friends. I consider him a brother from another mother. Andrew is always excited to record podcasts and he is one of the funniest people I know. He always has some great issues to bring up on the show that makes for great conversation. He has helped to make the show what it is today, both on a off air. He will definitely be on the show for a long time to come.     If you want to contact the show you can go to https://www.uncensoredhumanity.com/ and fill out the Contact Us form. Or email us at uncensoredhumanitypodcast@gmail.com. Feel free to ask a question to any of our regular guests, let us know if you have a topic you want us to cover or just let us know what you think of the episode.

Not too long ago we recorded episode 78 that we called Questioning our Existence with Andrew Hoffman, Todd Gienger and Dane Lee. It was an episode that Dane had been wanting to make about questioning everything in life as he had struggled to have that kind of conversation with his friends. I told him “I know a couple of guys that would be great for a conversation like that.” It quickly became one of our best episodes and people seemed to really enjoy that conversation. All four of us said after we finished recording that episode that we really enjoyed our conversation and that it went in a completely different direction than we all originally thought that it would.   At the end of that episode I mentioned that I wanted to talk on another episode about the energy inside of us. That's what we're here to do today. Some people might call our energy different things. A soul, our life force, the spirit, our conscience, spiritual being, etc. In my opinion it is what powers our human meat vehicle and gives us life on this plane of existence. I was very excited to talk to the guys about what they think of that energy. Unfortunately Andrew was unable to join us today. So it's just three of us. Please enjoy our babbling of things that we cannot explain.   I have known Todd for years and he is one of my closest friends. Any time I need to talk he is always there to listen and offer great advice. We have had many great talks over the years on a large range of topics. He is truly one of the most caring and compassionate people I've ever met.   Dane Lee is the owner of Elite Recovery Sports Massage and he is what I would call a recovery specialist.

Today we have a special treat for you. My brother Andrew Hoffman wanted to come on the show and talk about the current state of our culture. We are going to call this segment Culture Clash: Searching for Truth in a Fractured Society. The whole premise will be to talk about things going on currently in our society. Whether it being on social media, the news, current events, etc.   On today's episode Andrew and I started off talking about how frustrated I am with all these current issues from the previous covid shutdowns. I'm personally struggling with the fact that we are almost two years removed from the start of the 2020 covid pandemic and things don't seem to be getting better. In fact they seem to be getting worse in my point of view. I feel like we should be rebuilding our society back to the original boom we were having before the shut downs. I understand it will still take years to recover from the damage caused by the responses that were administered. I just don't personally feel like we are making forward progress. We also got to talking politics and the future elections that will be upcoming this year as well as the next presidential election in a couple of years. We definitely did not have a shortness of opinions to talk about. We both had a great time. Hopefully you will enjoy it as well.   Andrew is a regular guest on the show and I can't tell you how excited I am to talk about these controversial topics with him. These are the types of conversations I look forward to having, both on and off the podcast. Society tells us today that we aren't allowed to talk about these types of topics. But these are the kinds of conversations that need to happen in a safe environment where people can be honest with how they feel about things without fear of ridicule from others. That is what we will do our best to do on this segment of the podcast.   Andrew is one of my closet friends. I consider him a brother from another mother. Andrew is always excited to record podcasts and he is one of the funniest people I know. He always has some great issues to bring up on the show that makes for great conversation. He has helped to make the show what it is today, both on and off air. He will definitely be on the show for a long time to come.   If you want to contact the show you can go to https://www.uncensoredhumanity.com/ and fill out the Contact Us form.

Welcome to a special segment of the Uncensored Humanity Podcast we like to call American Honesty. During these shows I will have two co-hosts; Andrew Hoffman and Jake Bible. On the American Honesty segment we like to discuss topics that society has deemed inappropriate. Our goal is to just get our opinions out in the open for a discussion. We believe that the ability to talk about these tough topics is seriously lacking in today's society, as people seem to get offended too easily.   On today's episode we talked about the Covid 19 vaccine mandates and passports. This is a very important topic in our society today. It will affect most peoples lives in one way or another. While this topic has been greatly politicized, we ask that everyone take the politics out of it and just do what is best for you and your family. There are no right or wrong answers on this one. It's just about doing what is best for yourself. We need to stop vilifying others if their choices don't line up with our own. Everyone has a right to their opinion, even if it's wrong.   American Honesty is a project that Jake started a couple of years ago. So now using the podcast as our platform we are going to carry on the project that Jake started. Hopefully it will lead to some good conversations that others can enjoy as much as we do.   Jake is one of our regular guests on the podcast as he loves to have these interesting discussions with anyone. Jake is very much involved in local leadership with Medina Leadership. He is one of my co-hosts for the American Honesty segments on the show. He's always wanting to bring people on the podcast so they can share their opinion about the controversial topics we all like to cover.   Andrew is one of my closet friends. I consider him a brother from another mother. Andrew is always excited to record podcasts and he is one of the funniest people I know. He always has some great issues to bring up on the show that makes for great conversation. He has helped to make the show what it is today, both on a off air. He will definitely be on the show for a long time to come.   Gerard is a first generation American. His parents are originally from Haiti. With parents who grew up in a different country Gerard has a very different perspective than most people who were born in the USA. Gerard is a project manager in the construction field, and has a degree in civil engineering.

My name is Jesper galley. And on this show, we discuss all things real estate with investors and experts in a variety of industries that impact real estate. Whether you're looking at your first investment or raising your first fund, join me and let's build that portfolio one square foot at a time. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to working capital my name's Jesse for galleon today, I have better Elica deed. He is vice president at center court. Prior to joining center court batter worked as an investment associate for Tricon capital group, a real estate, private equity firm.    And prior to that, he worked as an analyst and investment banking at CIVC capital markets. And today we're talking all things, acquisition, all things development better. How's it going?    Bader (47s): No complaints. It's a 38 degrees outside and then my basement is good.    Jesse (52s): Yeah, I was going to say, I just, I totally forgot today. We have Italy versus Spain. Hopefully by the time I'm listening to this, we have one and have advanced to the finals, but yeah, it's, it is quite hot in, in Toronto. Right now. It is close to 40 or feels like 40.    Bader (1m 9s): Well, I'm sorry to keep you on the, on the line in that. How have you known him? He was playing Spain. I think we would have moved the call.    Jesse (1m 15s): No sweat. I'm one eye is looking to the, to the screen here, but no, thank you so much for coming on. Really appreciate you taking the time. I thought listeners would get a lot out of somebody from your background in real estate. And talk a little bit about development, how, you know, center court, underwrites assets, and just kind of your general path in, in the real estate industry. So on that note, maybe where we could start is a little bit about your background.    I mentioned Tricon CIVC for listeners. Give a little bit of a background and how you got into this, this world of real estate.    Bader (1m 54s): Yeah, so it's, I mean, pretty interesting story. I guess I, my graduated, I thought I was going to be in the tech space. I thought that was going to be, you know, where I'd find my path. And to that end, I, I kicked off my career in tech investment banking. So I was covering, you know, Roger's tell us a bunch of data centers, a lot of small tech companies back when it wasn't really sexy in two thousand ten thousand eleven. And it was, it was a great time. I did a ton of really interesting work, but the one deal that kind of really got me excited was the data center deal.    And I, I kind of saw that as an intersection between kind of real estate and technology, it was tangible, it made, it made real money at the time. So you could follow the cash flow that really kinda stuck out to me as a potential angle. But the more I kind of dug into what I was really interested in, it was really on the resi side. So I said to myself, well, look, people are making careers out of real estate. You can work in real estate finance. There's so many different ways to look at it. And, and through, through that, got introduced to tri Kahn.    Who's a real estate, private equity firm focused exclusively on residential real estate at the time, primarily in the U S. And I said, well, I would love to learn what the more with the us. I felt like I was just in Toronto at the time, and I kinda wanted to expand my horizons. It was residential, it was Toronto based a really young entrepreneurial team, a good track record. And I found a home there and I w I was there for, you know, just over four years, did a lot of really exciting work. But one of the pieces that I wasn't getting was the development piece.    Like, you know, we would invest in development projects and we would, you know, see a lot of the work, but as a Canadian based investor with porches in the U S it's very difficult to have that boots on the ground experience. So I decided I need to kind of learn the trade if you will. And I started embarking on a journey to find the, the right development group here locally to really take me in and take a bet on me. Cause I had different development experience and I found a home at center court. So I've been within our court now for four years.    And today I lead our land acquisition program. So, you know, really looking at every deal that comes through the door and seeing fits without and within our box. And that's how I spent the vast majority of time.    Jesse (4m 14s): Right on. And before we kind of moved to center court, I'm curious the, the type of deals you mentioned, residential, but the type of deals you're doing at Tricon, maybe you could talk a little bit about that, where they kind of vanilla where they, you know, a little bit more complex. How, how did that, how did that go    Bader (4m 32s): Very complex? You know, I remember the very first deal I did. I, I, my, my biggest tri con was a land development deal. So people think high is complicated, but this was like a, you know, a few hundred acre site in North Carolina. Yeah. So a brand new market, a time for, Tricon definitely a brand new market for me, you're talking about buying like a wood. What is law area putting in, you know, road sanitary, sewer, water, building like a highway off ramp and then selling, you know, blue top loss, the builders, or going vertical yourself.    So, you know, just the sheer size scope, like it's like a 10, 15 year deal, the market risk associated with that. Like, it was just a very complicated process. That was a lot of the work that I did there. The other bucket of work was, you know, probably a bit easier to wrap your head around. It was manufactured housing, it's the land lease communities. So we, we had a portfolio of manufactured housing communities primarily in Arizona, in California. So that was a bit easier to kind of, again, execute on wrap your head around cash, flowing assets, you know, easy value, add programs that are executable while we're on the risk curve.    For sure. And so that's how I spent most of my time. Certainly not plain vanilla. I wish I saw a couple of plain vanilla deals when I was there, but just tremendous learning opportunity on very complicated things.    Jesse (6m 5s): Yeah. That's, we've had people on the show for a manufactured housing and it's definitely has its intricacies, you know, when it comes to whether it's it's owned, whether it's land lease. So it sounds like it was predominantly Landlease that you were dealing with there.    Bader (6m 20s): Yeah. So I try Collin. One of the things that we did, and this was super exciting, you know, we ended up really basically taking $50 million of balance sheet capital in the first instance and, and using that to feed a manufactured housing portfolio, we, we found the right GP partner based out of Chicago to kind of lead those efforts on the ground. And what we were doing was we were buying, you know, call it one-off assets in the, you know, three to three and a half star category, good bones, or just really needed some, some significant TLC.    And we would effectively go in and do the value add program, rebase that try to effectively bring it from like an 85, you know, 88% occupancy up to that 95, 97, 90 8%, and really repositioned the entire park. That was the whole business plan. But if you can imagine, like effectively involves us flying down to, you know, Arizona jumping in like an SUV and you're cruising down, you know, like various parts, like I'm not talking Scottsdale fucking like Glendale and, and other areas.    And once we're parks, friended meet owners, like it's that traditional door knocking and trying to find opportunities. And if that's the way we built a portfolio of 14 assets where we own all the land, the tenants actually own the channel is what we call it, which is the house. They lease the land from you, it's all triple mess. And basically what you're trying to do is optimize right by building a portfolio, you know, spread the management costs, do the value, add program five and cap rate compression, grow the NOI, and then sell it off to another institutional, you know, owner who may not want to do that heavy lifting.    And, and we did that. We actually ended up selling it to Blackstone.    Jesse (7m 58s): Yeah, very cool. So pretty much a turnkey getting it to the point of turnkey and models, basically model, suite it for them and hand it over. And you said it was sold to Blackstone. Yes. Right on. And they, they had a fairly large play into single family. You know, everybody was trying to figure out how do you scale single family? And I think it was something like 38,000 or 40,000 units at the time. And I think they, I think they IPO the company or the company that they created. I totally forget the name. But do you recall?    Bader (8m 28s): I think the American, I think as American homes for rent, if I remember correctly, I think that was it there's. Yeah. Let's the single family rental, like Tricom was super active in that when I joined, it was like a big bet that was may coming out of the, the 2010 recession. And that business has continued to grow. I remember at the time there's a bunch of people who just couldn't figure it out. They couldn't understand how you could manage so properties, but you know, here we are 10 years later and it's a, I'll call it an institutional asset class with, you know, real, you know, pension players looking to grow the portfolio.    And, you know, we recently heard about a company here in Canada, who's going to try and do something similar. So it's super exciting. I like the whole time I tried it on was very innovative. I didn't work on single family rental, but just being around the folks who were working on it, you know, you just, don't, you, you start to appreciate the thesis and yeah. There's risks to it, but yeah, there's always risks.    Jesse (9m 32s): Yeah. Very cool. I think the one I was talking to the invitation homes, which I believe I, yeah, I believe IPO. Okay. Very cool. So you go from, from Tricon down to, or over to a center court, what's that transition like and what do you start working on once you, once you make that transition?    Bader (9m 50s): Yes. You know what? It was a, I think it's a big bet on my part, right. At the time, like I had a, I had a great thing going on for me, a Tricon, but I was really inspired by the founders of center court. You know, like working with guys like Andrew Hoffman, Jemez, Veronica, Steven, Bellevue, like everybody just has tremendous respect for them. I had tremendous respect to them and, you know, Centrepoint was still maybe five or six years old at a time and just had a great track record despite, you know, a relatively short tenure. So I knew they were on the right track.    And candidly, when I first met with Hermes to, you know, just pick his brain, we, we had a mutual connection and I said to him, Hey, this is what I'm looking for. I'm looking for developer that has these types of characteristics and you know, where do you think I should go? Like, who do you think I should talk to you, but you can't just stay away from, you know, like just kinda give me some guidance because all my work was in the U S and you know, after a few meetings, he just said, I, you know, I, I meet Andrew.    And at the time Ford was not hiring, you know, they had, they had a solid team, they were growing, but they weren't really looking for someone, but he said, Hey, like, you're a great talent. You have the right outlook on, on the world. And it aligns well with the way we see things. So if you're, if you're willing to make a bet on us effectively, when we can bet on you, so we're going to join, you won't really have a, you know, fully based roles. So I kind of did a bunch of everything when I first joined.    And then, you know, as the business grew, I grew, but the very first thing I did was a sales and marketing on our venting west project, which is a building over in Liberty village. So I took a deep dive into, you know, designing suites and coming up with the name and figuring out how to market it to brokers and, you know, our investor buyers. And that was the very first thing I did. And from there things quickly evolved and started doing more acquisition work, which is kind of more of my comfort zone.    And we ended up raising a, a, a large $250 million dedicated fund. So we have permanent capital and more of a call it a, a direct mandate to put that capital in play. And, and, and through that, and some heavy lifting, I eventually transitioned over to acquisitions.    Jesse (12m 14s): Very cool. So the, the fund itself, it was that, was that something that they, they created as a committed capital fund? Was it something that they created in a private REIT structure? What were the mechanics of that?    Bader (12m 27s): Yeah, it was, it was committed capital fund. So prior to that, you know, we were raising capital from ultra high net worth families on an as needed basis. When we had an opportunity that we felt was worthwhile, we'd bring it to our investors. And we had a very small group of very loyal investors. And, you know, what we saw in the marketplace was w w was really two or three different dynamics. One was, you'll just getting done a whole lot faster than ever before. Right. So that multitasking of doing your diligence, raising your capital, I mean, we were doing it, but it put a lot of pressure on the team.    We also had a great track record. So we thought, how can we leverage that track record into something more? So I think really, I know we just saw a lot of opportunity in the marketplace. So it was really those three things that sets ourselves. Let's just raise a committed fund where we know we have the money in the bank. We know we have this mandate and we know there's opportunities out there. It's just gonna help us execute better, you know, enhance the machine if you will. And it, it certainly did. So right now, you know, it's been three years, we're about halfway through that fun.    And, you know, we're, I'm super happy to report that things have worked out, you know, kind of exactly as, as we anticipated. I'm not exactly, but, you know, in the larger scheme of things, pretty, pretty close.    Jesse (13m 48s): So with that mandate, what type of, what type of latitude or what type of range of investments were part of the investment philosophy when, you know, you have investors initially coming in and saying, you know, these are the returns we're looking for. These are the asset classes that we're looking at. What did that look like?    Bader (14m 6s): Yeah, no, it's a good question. So, you know, for us, we try to be very, I think we try to have a narrow focus. So we're only doing high rise, residential condo for sale, right? So we don't have a mandate to do, you know, commercial or retail or industrial it's, it's, it's, it's one asset class in terms of market. You know, we, our bread and butter is the downtown core, but we had the latitude to go out to the greater Toronto area. So for, you know, for us, that's really the outer 4, 1 6 and 9 0 5.    That's what I would consider it to be kind of our, our playground right now. And in terms of, I guess, you know, scale and deal structure, really for us, it's 280,000 square feet or more of GSA. So we're looking for, you know, higher density stuff. It doesn't need to be a vertical tower. It can be, you know, a mid rise, but certainly high density. And last but not least, we have a lot of latitude in terms of what we can buy. So I can go out and buy a, you know, a Plaza. If I think that's positive can be converted into a high rise development.    We could buy a whole piece of a, of an assembly site, right. And assembled over time, the rest of the remaining properties, we can buy a fully zone site and just, you know, put a right to range of production. So, you know, we look at a lot of different opportunities in, in varying stages of, of the on-call there development life cycle,    Jesse (15m 30s): Right on. So, so that's kind of where I was going with that, where you would, you know, potentially you're buying something that is a different asset class today with the intention to take it to high rise, residential condo sale. Maybe you could talk a little bit. We, we, you know, on the, on the show, we've had people on that have been condo centric or had that similar type of mandate with their investors, but not so much a discussion of land assembly and how investors look at land assembly, because I can tell you from the point of view of the brokerage side, even on the investor side, you know, land assembly, it's definitely an art.    And for someone like myself, that doesn't see a lot of it aside from having investors in brokerage, say, I want this, I want this. It almost looks pretty random until you see something actually come together. So how do you approach that? Maybe, maybe you could dive into that a little bit.    Bader (16m 25s): Yeah, look, it, it's not easy. It can definitely look random. I think what I always tell people who are trying to pursue land assemblies. Like if you think of like the, the area, like call it, like the spectrum of risk w land assemblies highest, highest risk, right? Like you're, you're taking a bet on a piece of dirt that you need to buy your neighbors out at a basis. That's going to make sense. So you gotta think things through rezoning, like if it's the longest life cycle and most complicated piece of the, of the puzzle, but there's a approach.    I always say, I talked to a lot of young call it young brokers or, or, you know, peers. It's like, you know, like, what's the best way of doing this. And, you know, we often trade notes and then I'm one thing I can say is know where to look. Right. And it sounds easy when I say that to you, but the reality is do your homework, right? Like don't just start looking at, you know, four corners of being, well, there's a tower over there. That's the site next to, it must be a tower site, but it's far more complicated than that. I, I often find people just make that assumption.    You really have to understand. So if you're working in Toronto, the city Toronto official plan, the secondary plan, the site specific policies, the tall building guidelines, or mid-rise building guidelines, you know, you're really have to be plugged in to what, you know, the, the planning policy says is achievable. I think that is step one is to have that deep kind of Intel. And then step two is to kind of like, you know, you're kind of layering these things on top of each other to figure out, okay, I'm going to put them through this filter.    Where can I, like, what areas am I allowed to develop in? And then you'd have to go through it and say, well, okay, this area is clearly development sites, but I have to buy 16 peaks, like jumped people out. Is that something I'm going to spend my time and energy doing? It might be if you have the patients and the capital and the very long-term orientation, but realistically, I think most people will shy away from that. So then you're trying to find the sites that have, you know, call it two or three different land parcels. And then you're trying to make sure, well, has somebody already planted a flag there, right?    Like if another developer's already on the block, well, I'm just not gonna get into, you know, a back and forth about who's who's decided is and buying them out potentially. So you might want to find a block where there isn't someone already kind of taking claim, or we're doing that heavy lifting. And then it's about trying to figure what is the landlord then? And oftentimes this is the part you get tripped up, tripped up on because you can find the site. It makes sense. You know, you can get, you know, 200,000 square feet of density.    It all makes sense. But then you have a landowner who has, you know, very healthy expectations. And then you're like, okay, well, is it worth the ongoing negotiation? Do I approach somebody else on the block? And then you got to figure out the art versus the science. So it's, it can be very complicated, but, you know, knowing where to look, be persistent and be transparent. Like, I, I get a lot of guys who and girls who always say, well, you know, I'm going in. They don't know I'm a developer.    Like these yields are just too complicated, just be Frank. Like if you're in to develop, just say, I'm a developer because your diligence and your risk is so different than potentially somebody just buying it for commercial use that you have to make the vendor aware of that. So you can actually successfully closing the transaction and, and, and cover your downside. I always say, cover your downside. So that transparency is pretty, pretty critical. If you're gonna ask why, why do you want to put a bunch of holes in my, in my back, you know, lot, if, if you're buying this for just, you know, retail, you, so eventually the cat comes out of the bag.    I mean,    Jesse (20m 10s): Is that my guess, is that as a result of, you know, the expectation that an owner is going to be like, we want a development bonus as part of this deal, or we want, you know, some premium. And I feel like at the end of the day, it's going to be really hard to go in and not just say like this, this is what we're doing. We're developing.    Bader (20m 28s): Yeah. It's like, you know what? I, I won't discount that. I think, you know, once in a blue moon you'll find a site for young native development value. You're not paying for development value. You're not paying the full amount, but in a city like Toronto, I, unfortunately my belief is like, it's opposite. The people who have zero development value believes had development value. So it's the, you know, like the, the starting point is my woman, my retail, you know, building is worth, you know, $200 a square foot of a GSA on zone, even though like it's never going to be a development site.    That's kind of the, you know, the, the challenge is like, I actually find, I hear this from my, my friends kind of on the retail side. They say, everybody just thinks of developments. I can't even, you know, I haven't managed to go out and buy a 3000 square foot commercial building for one of my private investors. And I can't get one because everybody I talked to, you know, wants to sell it at like a two town development site. Yeah.    Jesse (21m 27s): And it's just like one of those things where it's like, well, if it's not a development site, it's not for sale. And we'll, we'll just hang on in from your experience when you are looking at these development sites. I mean, I feel like a big part of what you're talking about is, is the reason that the risk mitigation is in place income, where you can find something that might be a longer term play. Number one, is, is that how you look at it? And the second question, I'm curious if you make a distinction between properties that are, you know, have decent buildings on them, but it's really not highest and best use versus properties that are pretty much, you know, close as close as you can get in Toronto to dirt.    Bader (22m 6s): You know what, I don't really make that distinction all too often. I think what, what comes into play is existing use, for sure. Like I have no problem tearing down a four story building versus a two story building it's really w what's Lee's use and, and there's implications to it, right? So if you have an office building that has more than 10,000 square feet in certain areas of the city, I have to replace one for one that call it loss office space in my future development. So that has an implication on your land value. So I look at it from that lens, you know, certainly like, you know, whether or not it's a scale of the building.    Yes. It will have some implication to, you know, the demo costs or, or potentially other factors of the process. But oftentimes I'm, I'm more concerned about what is the existing use. If it's, if it's residential, it becomes very problematic. That's the, like, that's the hard part, because now you're negotiating with a bunch of different tenants to try to get them out. And then you have to replace the existing space in your new building. And the, the process of the city is just far more complicated.    You, you know, when you have to offer the opportunity to get residents to come back in the future, if now I have a rental component potentially in a condo building, so it's just a different use. There's a lot more complications. And, and that space just to put in perspective is a work, you know, call it 40 cents on the dollar of what a typical condo would sell for in the building. So it's quite diluted, which is candidly, why you often see, you know, some medium-sized rental buildings not being redeveloped, even though there's great context for it.    It's just very, it's very difficult if the numbers work.    Jesse (23m 50s): So on that point for those that you might not be aware of, like we have, we have listeners south of the 49th parallel north. I tried to tell people, you know, what we deal with specifically in, in Ontario in terms of landlord, tenant, board stuff, just residential regulations, when it comes to actually, you know, taking down a, say, mid or low rise apartment building, what are the, you know, w w what do you have to replace there in terms of replacement of rental units?    And maybe you could go into a little bit more detail on, on that.    Bader (24m 27s): Yeah, absolutely. So, and this is very call it city of Toronto specific. So every municipality will have their own rule that you have to be considerate of, but, okay. So    Jesse (24m 40s): In terms of, maybe you could talk a little bit more about that, the residential replacement. So for those that don't know, you know, Toronto, Toronto is pretty, pretty tenant friendly environment from a regulatory standpoint. What exactly, when you look at a, an apartment building that you need to tear down in order to build, what is that, what are the implications of that and what technically do you need to do as a developer?    Bader (25m 5s): Yeah, so it's, it's quite complicated. So the very first thing he had to keep in mind is, you know, every municipality has slightly different rules. So what might be like, I'm going to talk about Toronto because that's where most of our businesses, but Mississauga might have something slightly different bond will have something different. So I'm always read up and don't take what I'm saying right now at face value. But in Toronto specific specifically, I should say, we'll always look and see how many residential units there are. So the rule is that there's six or more residential units.    You have to replace them one for one in your future development. So both by unit type unit saw and unit size. So we all tend to know that, you know, older units typically have a larger three averages. You know, you're seeing these like two beds that are 1200 square feet. So you have to be very cognizant of the area and the unit type, and then the rent that are being charged, because once you actually go through the redevelopment process, what you'll have is no rental replacement units.    So let's say you have 60 units in your building. You'll actually have 50 units in the building, the same size and similar layouts at your development. Upon completion, you have to offer the tenants who were, you know, effectively relocated during the construction periods, operating to move back into the building. And the rents that are charged at that time are the same rents that were charged prior to the construction taking place. So, as you can imagine, you're in this condominium building, let's say the, you know, the average one bedroom rents are $1,800 a unit for a, you know, 500 and ish square foot unit.    Now you might have a one bedroom in the rental replacement portion of the building, which is going to be 800 square feet and renting out for now $1,300. So, you know, it's very, you know, call it value destructive, which is why you often see some buildings do have rental replacement. We've done several developments where, you know, we've, we've had to include some call it affordable housing or rental, but there's, you know, call it a tipping point.    If you have a building, like let's say, you know, a building where 25 to 30% of the building is going to be rental replacement. The economics of that deal tend to skew in a, in a way that don't make it really feasible. And, you know, it's one of those things where you're often looking at opportunities and you're thinking to yourself, well, there's a, a four story building here. Why doesn't this get redeveloped into a, you know, a 35 story tower, and oftentimes with the value that is lost, or the implications of that rental replacement in the future development don't really add up.    It becomes an N call it a deal doesn't really pencil out with very uneconomical. So I'm sure that will change over time, right there. Like it's always worth revisiting the math, but I was in the city for the last several years. The math hasn't really penciled out where you could replace a large quantum of units. And in    Jesse (28m 18s): Terms of the, I mean, Toronto specifically in terms of the actual replacement geography, you know, whether it's site or you can cause we've seen clients where they have gotten away with being able to replace it on a different site. Is that something that you see and is that kind of where you see potentially rental replacement going?    Bader (28m 37s): Yeah. You know what it's, that is a very unique way of addressing the challenge, right. I would say oftentimes when I've seen it done, you know, quote unquote offsite really has to be a, maybe one of two ways. They, you have to be a really significant gift. So let's say for instance, you know, you you're replacing six units, but instead of replacing them six units onsite, you're willing to do 10 units offsite in a standalone building or something, you know, I could, I I've seen that happen.    And, you know, it's, it, it, it certainly exists. It's just a different challenge right now, as a developer, I have to find this other replacement site to put these 10 units in, and that's a whole nother work stream and challenge on its own, but certainly doable. The other one I've seen where it's significant. So, you know, let's say you're demolishing 50 townhomes that are all rental. Well, you might actually need a very large site. I've seen, you know, someone build a, a six or eight story, you know, rental replacement building, where it's just a building where, you know, all those units are consolidated into, you know, a mid-rise built form, which, you know, might make sense depending on the project.    So I certainly seen unique angles to solving the problem, but it's not without challenge because now oftentimes what you'll see in those agreements is those units have to be, have to be delivered first. So you're front ending calls with that cash flow or your front ending, like your time and energy to solve that problem right off the bat. So certainly not impossible. There's a lot of different ways to like, again, approach the challenge, but it's, it's complicated.    Don't underestimate that, you know, I find a lot of people just typically say, okay, I'll figure it out. This is one you might want to sign that.    Jesse (30m 29s): Yeah, for sure. So Bever, let's talk a little bit about 20, 21 and beyond in terms of what you're, what you're looking at, where you're seeing opportunity, you know, what's next for center court, you know, from a real estate perspective. And given obviously with the, with the fact that we've gone through quite a tumultuous last 12 to 18 months, just as an industry. And I mean, as, as a world, but yeah. What are your, what are your thoughts on the outlook?    Bader (30m 59s): You know, I, I sound like a book, a broken record, cause I feel a lot of my colleagues in the community will say this, but we're very optimistic about condo and high rise development here in the city. You know, Centre court, we sold four buildings, all the downtown core or the past, you know, 15 ish months. And we launched our 55 Mercer project right before COVID in February, 2020.    We launched our 1 99 church project. You know, we're coming out of the first lockdown in, in July of 2020. We launched our eight, well, we project, you know, right. When can we have lockdown again in February of this year? And then prime are last on the heels of that. And we're gearing up for one or two more launches this year. So we're clearly, you know, big believers in the condo market here in Toronto.    We believe that two things it's still off the traunch is still the most desirable city in our, in our opinion in north America to live in, if not, it's not globally, we just have so much going for us. There's clearly a housing shortage. There's a, you know, a problem with affordability in this city and condominiums tend to be on the more affordable end of the range relative to, you know, the town, their single family home.    So, and then just, you know, more scientifically the spread between a condo a, in a home has never been wider right now. So in terms of price point, which tells us that there's, you know, upward momentum and pricing for condominiums and, and, and certainly demands. So all in all, you know, we're, we're very, as a competence and an optimistic about the future. And to that end, you know, we have, we're launching new projects and we're acquiring more sites. You know, we're constantly looking sites.    We haven't stopped. You know, there was a bit of a brief pause, I would say, obviously in new call it March, April, may of 2020, when, and we just, we had no idea what was going to happen here locally or in the world, but the market has found its footing. And since that time, we've, we've been very confident and, and continue to kind of operations. As I wouldn't say I was normal, but you know, operations as close to normal as one would expect, given the backdrop of COVID.    Jesse (33m 33s): And with that as the backdrop, in terms of capital markets, do you see this, you know, environment continuing over the next few years? I mean, we've, I mean, I don't know how many times I've said historically low over the last 10 years, but we've, we're in an environment where they're very different to oh 7 0 8 where there was an issue, but there was also a credit issue. There's a recession in conjunction with lack of credit. Whereas right now we're, you know, we're in a very similar type of macro economic state, except that there seems to be the opposite.    There's a glut of credit.    Bader (34m 9s): Yeah. I think the biggest thing that differentiates, you know, call it COVID from the recession. And I think you'll forget what the, you know, the, the great recession, but mostly because of Canada, you can look them up a bit on escaped, but you know, if you take a step back, there is just never the quantitative stimulant, right? Like, yes, the credit of the available is one thing, but the wage support subsidies the effectively, the banks just stepping up and working with business owners and, and, and operators, right.    To make sure that they don't repossess your, her, your business or your site or your home or whatever, like that's unprecedented, right? So the level of cooperation and stimulus in the marketplace has never been seen before. And I think that is, you know, I think it's absolutely the right thing to do, but it's certainly giving people the confidence to continue as business as usual. That's the whole point of these programs. And then when you have that, and then in the property market, ultra low interest rates, you have consumers who I would say are pretty highly qualified.    Like there's a lot of, you know, folks who, who do have significant down payments who have good income, who are working, who don't, who have been working from home. Haven't we been spending have either paid down debt and, and a rage to deploy that capital, whether it's, you know, in residential or other markets. So there's kind of this trifecta, which is kind of Lea. And then there's just the aspirations of whether it's home ownership or putting money to work. And in real estate, which has kind of been a bit of a bright spot in, in all of this.    So you'll all these things I think have led to a very healthy, real estate market, particularly on the resi side. And, and I think, I don't think that's going to change. I think again, people get interest rates are probably going to edge up right over time and that's going to change the equation slightly, but, you know, overall, you know, it might not be as buoyant as it is today, but I still think we're going to be looking at a very healthy market, you know, whether it's the next one, two or three years, for sure.    Jesse (36m 25s): Awesome. All right. Well, we're just coming to the end here and before we, if people want to get more information on center court and reach out before we get there for questions, we ask every guest kind of a rapid fire. If you're good to go, I'll toss them at ya. All right. Something, you know, now that you wish you knew at the beginning of your career,    Bader (36m 51s): You're not going to become a, an expert in two to three years to be more patient, more like out about 10 to 15, and you're just always continue learning. So if you think, you know it all at two or three years, you don't keep your head down, work hard, read a lot, figure out who actually knows what they're talking about and listen to them. And it wasn't to people who don't know what they're talking about. And maybe take a couple of notes from that too.    Jesse (37m 15s): It's weighted average. All right. The I'm sorry. Next question. In terms of mentorship, younger people in our industry, specifically, what are number one, what's your view of men mentorship, and you know, what would you tell somebody coming into this industry?    Bader (37m 31s): Mentorship is critical. I know it can be awkward, right? How do I find a mentor? It gets, it's kind of weird, but I, you know, I have two mentors that, you know, have been my mentors now for maybe five or six years. And I don't think they know they're my mentors. I don't think it's a formal arrangement, but they're people I use as a sounding board before making major decisions are people who I listened to and, and, you know, maybe track their career path and, and, you know, have candid conversations about what has gone, right.    And what's gone wrong and you know, what I'm happy about or unhappy about. And I think if you find the right person, they can be that sounding board and, and have that north star that keeps you candidly on, on track because it's so easy to, you know, find yourself off the, off in left field. If you, if you don't have someone to talk to and share your thoughts and your ideas with so definitely don't underestimate it. And biggest thing is I know it's, again, it's very odd. It's hard to find a mentor. You're not going to find a mentor, maybe your first job or your second job.    It might take a bit of time, but you'll know when, when that person's there and, and jump on the opportunity, don't be shy    Jesse (38m 41s): Right. On what resources are you kind of reading or listening to right now that you'd recommend to the listeners?    Bader (38m 50s): You know what, so we have a newborn, so I haven't read anything I have to call in the last five months. Yeah. I don't know on that stuff. How to keep your baby alive, what I've been reading, but the one book that I would recommend is am I being too subtle? Bye bye. Sam Sao. Yeah. I don't know if you've read it Jesse, but yeah, I think it's a fantastic book. You know, it's all about importance of reputation, you know, margin of safety, having skin in the game.    It's, it's written kind of my, you know, I'm like, I call it Bible, but like everything I, I believe is in that book. And I, I recently re-read it, you know, over Christmas break and I think it's a good read and we're picking up    Jesse (39m 38s): The funny thing too, is for those of that know Sam Zell, I was actually surprised the audio book had his voice on it. So if you like that raspy voice, there's five hours of it. Awesome, man, last question. There's our layup. First car make and model    Bader (39m 56s): My first car, make and model. Oh, Volkswagen Jetta VR, six block, black leather interior smashed to the ground. I had two 12 inch subwoofers in the back. It was, it was my, honestly I regrets on the park. It was my favorite.

On today's episode we have the normal crew with us, Andrew Hoffman, Jake Bible and Todd Gienger. Todd has recently had a big health scare and wanted to come on the show and talk about it. Todd recently had to go to the emergency room due to chest pains. They originally didn't find anything wrong and luckily the pain went away after a couple days in the hospital. After he was released from the hospital they wanted to schedule some tests to make sure everything was okay. After those tests they found a 90% blockage of a main artery to his heart. If they had not found this blockage at this point it's safe to assume that it would have soon been 100% blocked and Todd would have had a major heart attack and probably would have died.   After this major health scare Todd has worked with his health care providers to get this problem in order. He's also working with a mental health specialist and a nutritionist. He has lost almost 40 pounds in the past 4 months. Todd wants everyone to know the importance of regular health checks as they literally could save your life as they most certainly did his. Hopefully we can all learn from Todd's example of going to get checked out by the proper medical professionals when needed.   I have known Todd for years and he is one of my closest friends. Any time I need to talk he is always there to listen and offer great advice. We have had many great talks over the years on a large range of topics. He is truly one of the most caring and compassionate people I've ever met.   Jake is one of our regular guests on the podcast as he loves to have these interesting discussions with anyone. Jake is very much involved in local leadership with Medina Leadership. He is one of my co-hosts for the American Honesty segments on the show. He's always wanting to bring people on the podcast so they can share their opinion about the controversial topics we all like to cover.   Andrew is one of my closet friends. I consider him a brother from another mother. Andrew is always excited to record podcasts and he is one of the funniest people I know. He always has some great issues to bring up on the show that makes for great conversation. He has helped to make the show what it is today, both on and off air. He will definitely be on the show for a long time to come       © 2018 Uncensored Humanity   Artwork by Kathryn Kidwell Intro music Rover by S Strong – available on Youtube audio library Outro music Whitestick by S Strong – available on Youtube audio library

Today we have a special treat for you. My brother Andrew Hoffman wanted to come on the show and talk about the current state of our culture. We are going to call this segment Culture Clash: Searching for Truth in a Fractured Society. The whole premise will be to talk about things going on currently in our society. Whether it being on social media, the news, current events, etc.   On today's episode we weren't sure what to talk about honestly. We both have taken a bit of a sabbatical from the news and social media. We started off a little slow but then got into the Covid restrictions being lifted, and that's when things started to heat up. We both have very different opinions on the restrictions and things definitely got heated. We also talked about the new preschool program being suggested by the current presidential administration. Which lead us into some interesting ideas about the schooling system as a whole and relationships. We ended the podcast talking about religion and the afterlife. This is definitely one of our best podcasts to date. We both had a great time. Hopefully you will enjoy it as well.   Andrew is a regular guest on the show and I can't tell you how excited I am to talk about these controversial topics with him. These are the types of conversations I look forward to having, both on and off the podcast. Society tells us today that we aren't allowed to talk about these types of topics. But these are the kinds of conversations that need to happen in a safe environment where people can be honest with how they feel about things without fear of ridicule from others. That is what we will do our best to do on this segment of the podcast.   Andrew is one of my closet friends. I consider him a brother from another mother.

Welcome to a special segment of the Uncensored Humanity Podcast we like to call American Honesty. During these shows I will have two co-hosts; Andrew Hoffman and Jake Bible. On the American Honesty segment we like to discuss topics that society has deemed inappropriate. Our goal is to just get our opinions out in the open for a discussion. We believe that the ability to talk about these tough topics is seriously lacking in today's society, as people seem to get offended too easily.   On today's episode we talked about the Daunte Wright shooting near Minneapolis. This took place while the trial for the George Floyd was going on nearby. Obviously tensions were already high due to the trial, but after the shooting of Daunte Wright the area erupted with protests of police brutality. We talked quite a bit about the shooting and what could have been done differently. But more importantly we talked about the police reform that we believe needs to happen so we can move forward without these types of unnecessary events happening again. It was definitely a great conversation. Hopefully you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we had recording it.   American Honesty is a project that Jake started a couple of years ago. So now using the podcast as our platform we are going to carry on the project that Jake started. Hopefully it will lead to some good conversations that others can enjoy as much as we do.   Jake is one of our regular guests on the podcast as he loves to have these interesting discussions with anyone. Jake is very much involved in local leadership with Medina Leadership. He is one of my co-hosts for the American Honesty segments on the show.

He will definitely be on the show for a long time to come.   Gerard is a first generation American. His parents are originally from Haiti. With parents who grew up in a different country Gerard has a very different perspective than most people who were born in the USA. Gerard is a project manager in the construction field, and has a degree in civil engineering. Education was very important to his family and he and his sister were highly encouraged to take it seriously and get their degrees.         © 2018 Uncensored Humanity   Artwork by Kathryn Kidwell Intro music Rover by S Strong – available on Youtube audio library Outro music Whitestick by S Strong – available on Youtube audio library

On today's episode we wanted to talk about the results of the 2020 presidential election between Donald Trump and Joe Biden. There has definitely been a ton of very strong opinions on both sides of the aisle for both candidates. The country seemed more divided than ever about this election. We shall see if people can put aside their issues and come together in the coming months ahead as now the election is over. There were record numbers so obviously the country turned out in strength to vote in what seems to be the most important election of my lifetime. I personally have faith that we will come together as a nation again and start to move forward, but only time will tell.   Ben West was our first guest on the American Honesty segment. He was a great guest and had a very different perspective than the three of us. We were excited to have him back on the show.   Both Andrew and Jake have been on the show multiple times separately.

Believe it or not, there was a time when the church you are in now was nothing more than a dream in someone's mind! But whoever it was that started it could never have done it alone - others had to help. In fact, the EFCA itself started as a church planting movement. Even our mission statement begins with the word "Multiply." So in this episode, Andrew Hoffman, EFCA Director of Church Multiplication, walks us through how church planting leaders from across the nation have come together to produce the Reach Network: the most strategic national church planting effort in decades for the EFCA. You'll hear the story of how God put together a new multiplication team out of a terrible tragedy, and how men and women across districts are working together to produce systems that are state of the art for assessing, coaching, and training new planters. Finally, you'll learn how you can be a part of it, because this is an "all hands on deck" effort. Andrew and his family planted a church fifteen years ago in Berkeley, CA, and no matter where you are in ministry, you can learn from his experience. For more information on how to get involved in this pivotal church planting effort, reach out to him at andrew.hoffman@efca.org and check out the EFCA church multiplication page.
