The latest CoreLogic indices are out and the momentum in the Australian Housing market is seeing values rise at the fastest rate in seventeen years! Not something anyone would have predicted six months ago.
In this month’s Market Insights, I talk to Tim Lawless about the current state of the market and what headwinds we need to watch out for.

REIP Market & Leadership Insights
This month we have two new Leadership Insights to share with you:
1. Bad Boss – What do you do if you work for one, manage one or are one?
This is the latest book from Michelle Gibbings who is the author of three books and a global speaker.
Many of us have worked in toxic work environments and there are times when you dread going into the office, you fear having a voice or being noticed. It can impact your confidence and self-esteem and your mental and emotional health. Michelle says in her book that people don’t deliberately set out to be a bad boss, often they simply don’t know any better.
In this podcast, when we talked about toxic leadership, I loved how Michelle says, “toxic leadership can be contagious and it can infect people positively or negatively”. We all need to keep in mind that ineffective and/or toxic leadership will impact staff turnover, productivity, employee engagement and client engagement.

2. Proptech Update and RISE Conference
Kylie Davis, founder of Proptech Association Australia talks to us about what’s happening in the Proptech sector, how to select a product that will work for your business and your clients and the upcoming national Proptech awards.
She also shares an update on the important Rise Conference that will be held on 5 May in Melbourne. Rise is about how to maintain wellbeing, mindfulness and performance. The sessions will inspire, and the stories shared will connect with you. If you have been experiencing stress or burn-out or are exhausted chasing goals that are ‘one-dimensional’, perhaps it’s time to RISE.
