JMC Attends 2024 MAA Expo

 JMC had over 25 employees attend the 2024 MAA Expo at the Hynes Convention Center. We had staff ranging from maintenance to leasing consultants, property managers, regional managers, and directors from the corporate office.

The morning kicked off with three breakout sessions covering topics in DEI, mindfulness, and maintenance. Everyone then gathered together to listen to the keynote speaker after the morning sessions. The 2024 keynote speaker was Alex Toussaint. Although he is most well known as a Senior Instructor at Peloton, he is also a Puma Athlete, the Founder of the Do Better Foundation, and a best-selling author. Toussaint has an incredible life story that he shared with the audience and he provided meaningful advice, inspiration, and motivation to all attendees.

Attendees were then invited to explore the tradeshow floor full of unique vendors ready to provide service to the multifamily industry. Everyone was able to learn about new vendors and often had the chance to win a prize at the booths. After lunch, attendees could go back to the tradeshow floor before heading into the afternoon sessions.

The afternoon included the option to attend one of five different breakout sessions. One focused on maintenance with safety assessments and job hazard analysis, another looked at strategies for career growth and development to enhance resident retention, and another discussed tips for leadership success. Another session covered leasing, marketing, and resident retention in addition to a session on crafting effective brands for multifamily. The day ended with a closing session led by Steve Wunch and the annual cash prize giveaway. The JMC crew had many takeaways from the expo and we look forward more events with MAA in the future!
