Why It Matters to Centralize Property Management Communications

Communication failures are silently sabotaging multifamily operations. Between overflowing inboxes, missed text messages, and information scattered across multiple platforms, your teams are spending countless hours searching for information while important details fall through the cracks.In this eye-opening discussion, Jim Rostel, COO at Anchor Northwest Property Group, shares a harrowing story about facing a lawsuit eight months after a property disaster, only to discover critical communications were inaccessible after an employee left the company. This real-world example highlights how our industry's fragmented communication approaches create serious business liabilities that extend far beyond day-to-day frustrations.Jason Griffith, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Synco, explains why property management needs specialized communication tools rather than generic platforms built for every industry. "Most people are using the same software for communications that the local dog kennel, barbershop, and Department of Defense use," he notes. "It has nothing to do with property management, which is why the current way of doing business causes so much pain."The conversation reveals how centralizing communications creates transparency from "boardroom to boiler room," allowing executives to monitor critical situations in real-time without micromanaging. We explore how features like instant translation help diverse maintenance teams communicate effectively, and how integrating communications from other alert systems eliminates inbox overload.Most compelling is Jim's insight on implementation: the executives initially most resistant to change became the platform's biggest champions once they experienced the benefits. "This is one of those questions like as an executive, once you make the move to a new way, why would you go back?" he asks.Whether you're considering centralization initiatives or simply tired of information falling through the cracks, this discussion provides a practical framework for rethinking your communication strategy. How much more could your team accomplish if they weren't constantly searching for information across multiple platforms?

Synco is the team communication tool built specifically for property management. It brings corporate teams, on-site staff, vendors and clients together in one seamless application. Synco provides the transparency to never have to ask "where are we on this", the peace of mind in knowing that all communications are securely filed and the advantages of rapid, effective team communication. Jason Griffith is the Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Synco, the real-time, centralized messaging platform built to help property management teams communicate faster and better.

We can always choose to move forward in kinder ways. Rich made a big change, but all of us can work on being kinder in our daily lives. What is one way you could be kinder?TRANSCRIPTHi, I'm Dr. Eileen Kennedy-Moore, an author and clinical psychologist based in Princeton, NJ. Today on Kids Ask Dr. Friendtastic I have something very special for you:A lot of kids think they're the only one struggling with friendship problems, but really everyone has faced friendship rough spots! Today, I'm introducing Dr. Friendtastic's Friendship League. The Friendship League is made up of adults who care about kids and who have volunteered to share with you some memories from when they were a kid about a friendship rough spot they faced plus a kind thing a friend did for them. Here's our very first Friendship League episode: Hey, Kids! Hey, Dr. Friendastic! This is Jason Griffith, former voice of Sonic the Hedgehog and Shadow the Hedgehog. So a friendship rough spot I had as a kid would have been about the time I was in 6th grade. I really wanted to be friends with the popular kids–the kids who played sports and were cool. And I was so not cool. I had a face full of zits, big glasses, chubby, brush-cut hair that wasn't even even… So, nobody–with very few exceptions–wanted to be my friend, and I was picked on a lot.  I remember at the end of school, we'd be waiting for the bus, and there was this kid, Rich, who would stand in front of me and just make fun of me, and say horrible things to me, and really hurt my feelings until the bus came. Our bus was always the last one to arrive, so it was a while. And I even remember my dad had some trouble with the law, and it got publicized in the newspaper, and he would make fun of me for that. It was just not a fun time. I knew I could be a great friend, and I would be loyal and supportive and creative friend. I just didn't get that chance. A twist on that, to answer the second question, a kind thing a friend did for me, well it wasn't done by a friend; it was done by this Rich kid. It was a week or so after my father had passed away, and I was in 7th grade. Now, leading up to this, I was teased almost every day, especially riding the bus home. A group of kids, usually led by Rich, would do the teasing. I remember sitting on the bus and just feeling so down and depressed because my father had just died. A couple of the kids started to make fun of me in the way they always did, saying some stuff about my appearance, or my zits, or whatever it was. I just remember Rich, sort of the linchpin of all this mockery, stopping them and very quietly explaining to them that my dad had just died. And immediately the teasing stopped. I don't think I was teased one day after that, going forward. I'll always remember that because it was something I didn't expect, and that I'm completely grateful for, and I think gave me an opportunity to see the redemption…the redeeming value that even a bully–even a school bully who made your life a nightmare–could have. So even though it wasn't a friend, it was a friendly action, and I am very grateful.Wow, Jason, what a powerful story! Thank you so much for sharing it! To me, Jason's story says a lot about his strength because he moved on to do so many interesting and satisfying things after such difficult, difficult experiences. It also points to the power of kindness. Jason used a beautiful word to describe Rich's change of heart: redemption. Redemption means freeing ourselves from a bad situation or bad actions. I don't think Rich shutting down the teasing erased all the meanness he did before, but it was an act of kindness, and it make it possible for Rich and Jason–and the other kids–to move forward in a better direction. That matters.If you're a kid who has been bullied, think of Jason's story and know: It gets better. Hang on and find your support people. And if you're a kid who's maybe made some not-so-kind choices, know you can change, starting now.I'll be back next week with a question about friendship from a kid.

The third in a six-part series discussing a set of social practices embedded in NWP-style teacher leadership, this episode examines the practice of writing. NWP teacher leaders know that when teachers write for others in their profession they are taking on a form of leadership and embracing a means for advocating for the value of teacher classroom inquiry and reflective practice. In this episode we will talk to teacher-writers and look at various ways that Writing Project sites can support writing teachers in becoming teachers who write. Guests Shelbie Witte, Director, Oklahoma State University Writing Project Anne Whitney, Professor of Education, Penn State Jason Griffith, Teacher/Author Jennie Brown, Teacher/Author Shelly Durham, Teacher Christina Cantrill, Associate Director, NWP Links from the Show NWP's Knowledge Base: Write/Learn/Lead Open Publishing Platform for Educators: The Current Voices from the Middle, December 2017 Related Shows: Part 1: Advocacy; Part 2: Going Public with Our Practice

Lancaster Story Slam podcast

Here's three stories from our Lancaster Story Slam event themed "It's My Job" that was held on June 23, 2015 at Tellus360 in Lancaster, PA. Liz Yocom won our Story Slam with her explanation of how her job differs from her passion. We often take our first job as a teenager, when we’re still trying to discover both the world and ourselves. Jamie Beth told a powerful story of what she learned from a very awkward experience at the record store in which she worked. We might think working as a lifeguard would be a dream come true. Jason Griffith gave us an inside look at the rather gross responsibilities of being a lifeguard manager.
