Commercial Real Estate is a continuously shifting industry
The diversity of our clients and there varying motivations create a environment where adaptability, empathy , clear thinking and perseverance are a must for success. We like to have fun while we work. We like to work to a high standard to fulfil our clients’ goals whilst allowing us to fulfil our hedgehog concept.
Our Decision Making Model
The hedgehog concept was developed in the book Good To Great and flows from our understanding of the intersection of three circles.
This decision making model is at the heart of all decisions made and helps align ourselves clearly with our client.
- What are we deeply passionate about: Team Values
- What can you be the best at: Community Impact
- What drives your economic engine: Client Success
1. Team Values
Life is meant to be lived (now). I do believe that good work creates productive lives and communities. There is also a strong cultural bias on how much we should work . We push against this bias.
Smart productive work that provides large blocks of time away coupled with high earning potential creates an environment for real personal growth and happiness.
We value good, clean, honest business that is conducted with integrity and good intentions.
2. Community Impact
Giving is one of the most rewarding endeavours an individual can partake in. The impact internally as well as externally creates purpose for our work and improves the lives of other.
LOCALE is dedicated to creating purpose in our work. We will donate to a Locale cause that we feel will help the community and people within on a yearly basis.

3. Client Success
Our number one priority… This drives all 3 circles and is crucial to our success. Client success has many different faces and we look at every opportunity individually with open perspective to ensure we know what success looks like for our client. Our efforts are driven off these conversations and start every relationship.
