With Christine Mann, RPA, LEED® GA, Newly Elected BOMA SF President and Portfolio Manager, Paramount Group, Inc. Tell us a little about your career path and your current role with Paramount Group, Inc. When I “grew up” in this industry, I don’t think I ever thought this would be my chosen career nor did I think that this career path existed. My primary goal was to get my foot in the corporate world and the rest is history. What started as a temporary receptionist role for an executive suite platform (aka WeWork circa 1990s) has flourished into a successful career path in commercial real estate. I have been fortunate enough to work with prominent real estate companies such as Catellus Development, Equity Office Properties, Madison Marquette and Boston Properties before I landed my role as the General Asset Manager for One Market Plaza with Paramount Group and now as the San Francisco Portfolio Manager. In my current role as Portfolio Manager, I oversee all operations and management for our assets in San Francisco which has now grown to about 4M SF. I encourage and grow my team by empowering them to be involved in all aspects outside of property management such as leasing and construction. Ensuring that our teams deliver top-notch tenant relations and customer service is also a primary focus. A large aspect of my role is working closely with our various teams in New York as it pertains to acquisitions, financial planning and analysis, asset management, legal, lease administration and investor relations. Paramount’s San Francisco portfolio includes iconic properties, such as 111 Sutter and One Market Plaza, and the firm is a leader in sustainability initiatives across the portfolio. What inspires you in managing these assets, and how will this experience shape your presidency? One word— challenges. These two iconic properties, which encompass both ends of the spectrum, come with their own challenges. Having the ability to weigh in and make decisions on solving these challenges is what inspires me to wake up in the morning and tell myself I love my job! My sense of handling challenges, problem solving, my breadth of knowledge, experience in the industry and working with my peers will allow me to be strategic during my tenure. Paramount has empowered me to be a leader in this market, and I envision that I will bring this leadership to my role as president of BOMA San Francisco. (Continued on page 4)
