inside The Commercial Record’s Recruitment And Retention Issue No matter the condition of the economy or the industry of the company, firms everywhere struggle with the right balance of recruiting new employees and retaining the ones they have. This issue of The Commercial Record takes a look at what local real estate agencies are doing to attract and keep Millennial agents, as well as clients; the impact the recession had on hiring in architecture; and the gap between the cybersecurity needs of the financial industry and the number of experts available for hire.

EMPLOYEES ARE NOT CHATTEL
T
his month’s issue of The Commercial Record is about the age-old problem of employees – how to get them and how to keep them. People are complicated and policies are inflexible; the execution of said policies often loses sight of the people they are meant to promote and protect. Lots of “experts” have lots of advice about how to keep employees happy and productive, most of it contradictory. Amenities are all the rage, in development and in the firm – look to the tech industry for examples of nap pods, free food and open bars (all of which are designed to keep employees working longer and harder so they can’t take advantage of those open vacation policies). Much depends on the individual and why they have made the choices they have. A career in residential real estate affords a flexible schedule and at least the illusion of being your own boss. A career in the highly structured field of banking offers a clear path up the ladder. Those are two very different personality traits. Though recruitment strategies may vary by industry and the perks available are different in every field, it all comes
down to only one thing: treating employees like humans. A corporation’s culture has a lot to do with this. As Barbara Pearce sagely noted in Jim Morrison’s article in this issue (page 12), the agency promotes the idea that colleagues are peers. If you think of your coworkers as friends, almost family, you’re less likely to leave that comfortable place. Moreover, most workers spend far more time with their colleagues than they do with anyone else, including their own families and friends – better they should actually enjoy who they work with instead of merely tolerating them. Sometimes that bond is formed through fire – many a bar has seen the bonding between workers in the trenches of a highstress work environment – but that is, obviously, not an ideal way to build a team or a healthy corporate culture.
Teambuilding and cross-departmental cooperation are vital to creating a truly supportive environment for employees. So is open and communicative leadership. Perhaps we should just be grateful to have jobs at all, but in truth we’ll be working for most of our lives; much better that we should enjoy coming to work every day. It’s a charge often lobbed at a Millennial, who has (supposedly) been told their entire life that they are a special snowflake, which often doesn’t translate well in the business world. While there’s a line between supporting and enabling, everyone, no matter their generation, wants to feel valued. When employees feel valued and respected, they are far more invested in their job and in the company as a whole – and far less likely to leave it. n

INSIDE THE CUTTHROAT WORLD OF CYBERSECURITY RECRUITMENT
Demand For Talent Far Outstrips Supply Of Qualified Applicants
BY LAURA ALIX | COMMERCIAL RECORD STAFF
M
uch ink has been spilled in these very pages about both the need for strong cybersecurity practices and the talent wars happening at banks today (particularly in commercial lending), but ne’er the twain shall meet. But as hackers at home and abroad target financial institutions of all sizes, banks in need of talented cybersecurity personnel are finding that their demand is far outstripping the supply. “Our experience has been that the talent in that field is fully deployed. It’s really difficult to find cybersecurity technology specialists,” said Barry Abramowitz, executive vice president and chief information officer at Liberty Bank in Middletown. Chris Connolly, division manager at the IT recruiting firm Open Systems Technol-
ogies, says the supply of talented cybersecurity personnel is “not even close” to meeting the demand, and he has a theory as to why. In Connecticut in particular, the insurance capital of the world, many major organizations have outsourced at least part of their IT functions, creating the perception that the IT field is unstable. “As kids are going into college, their parents are telling them, ‘don’t go into IT, because you could be outsourced and lose your job,’” he said. Perhaps those parents should pay more

attention to the high-profile data breaches hitting everybody from Target to the Fed. In banking and elsewhere, cybersecurity is no longer strictly the domain of IT. And while the Massachusetts-based search firm Kiradjieff & Goode Inc. specializes in executive and senior-level placements more generally, Managing Partner Chip Goode said that cybersecurity experience is increasingly valuable for positions like chief technology officer or chief information officer. That’s due in no small part to increased visibility of highprofile data breaches, along with the attendant scrutiny by regulators. “There’s no question that it’s increasingly on board of directors’ and CEOs’ minds,” he said. “One of the things we’ve been screening for in our CTO and CIO engagements is: ‘Does this professional have any background in cybersecurity? How knowledgeable are they? What has their specific experience been?’” Though all the top cybersecurity executives at the organization may not yet directly report to the CEO, those people tasked with keeping the bank’s data safe increasingly have more interaction with the CEO and the board, Goode said.
The Search For Up-And-Coming Talent Lore has it that the bank robber Willie Sutton once said that he robbed banks because “that’s where the money is.” Though Sutton didn’t actually say that, the principle certainly applies to today’s cybercriminals, who hack and phish their way to cash and sensitive customer data. As long as they’re lurking in the shadows, cybersecurity will be a priority to the banking industry. To help foster interest in the field, Connolly said that he often visits college campuses as part of his work with the Society for Information Management, spreading
Considering A Career In IT? Consider Some Figures
63% Last year, the Society for Information Management (SIM) found in its IT Trend Study that just under 63 percent of responding organizations said in 2014 that they planned to increase spending and budgeting for IT.
46% SIM also found that nearly 46 percent of respondents reported an increase in internal IT employees, as opposed to 21 percent who reported a decrease and 33 percent who reported no change at all.
the word about career prospects in the IT field. A cybersecurity professional could easily pull in a salary beginning around $70,000 for an entry-level position, he said. Perhaps more college students should know that. Companies in need of cybersecurity personnel are also trolling college campuses for fresh recruits. “What we’re seeing is more and more companies are actively involved in college recruiting, directly off campus, dramatically more than when I was in school,” he said. “They’re trying to get these kids young and bring them in and train them the way they want [them] to be trained.” The demand has also prompted many in other areas of the technology field to rebrand themselves in the hope of better positioning themselves for future job growth. “Oftentimes what we see are that people are more specialized in the roles they fill,” Abramowitz said. “They may be specialized in validating the environment to make sure their patch management program is up to date, but they have no involvement identifying any other vulnerabilities in their environment. Or they haven’t had experience in the documentation of policy and procedures, or haven’t had experience in incident response.” He said that he now sees people from other areas of IT seeking certifications – for example, a certified information security manager – to help propel their careers.
79% Additionally, 79 percent of those organizations reported that average IT staff salaries had increased and the average reported increase was just over 2 percent.
For his own part, Abramowitz said he doesn’t favor any one particular designation over another, but he values that in his employees and would-be employees. And Goode said that while particular cybersecurity qualifications haven’t yet been “make or break” in any of the senior technology placements his firm has made, having a well-rounded background in all areas of the bank’s technology function only

helps professionals distinguish themselves. “It was definitely a nice to have qualification and enhanced their candidacy that much more,” he said. “From our experience, it is still coming down to strategy, leadership and communication skills and it is a real plus if they have this in their background.” n Email: lalix@thewarrengroup.com

NEWS ROUNDUP CT GREEN BANK TO OFFER GRANTS FOR GREEN UPGRADES
The Connecticut Green Bank is soliciting applications for a program intended to provide supplemental funds to manufacturers who complete a qualifying green energy project using the organization’s program for energy efficient upgrades for commercial borrowers. The Energy on the Line program is offering grants for renewable energy and energy efficiency building upgrades and is accepting applications until Sept. 16. The Green Bank’s Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) program provides commercial property owners with full financing for green energy projects that help reduce the plant’s total energy cost and improve emissions. “Connecticut manufacturers feel the burden of energy costs more than anyone, and we’re excited to see C-PACE put manufacturers back in control of their businesses through the Energy on the Line program,” Bryan Garcia, president and CEO of the Connecticut Green Bank, said in a statement. “We look forward to working with the manufacturing community and to making green energy financing more accessible and affordable to them. That’s a win for Connecticut’s environment and economy.” The Green Bank is offering supplemental funding up to $50,000 for project related expenses with the intent of reducing the amount of financing needed by C-PACE to complete upgrades. The $800,000 program is funded through the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development’s Manufacturing Innovation Fund and will be matched by more than $8 million of private sector funds through the Connecticut Green Bank. The Green Bank is administering the program, which is open to all Connecticut manufacturing companies that have owner-occupied facilities.
JULIAN ENTERPRISES ACQUIRES COMMERCIAL OFFICES IN FAIRFIELD
A Fairfield commercial office building has sold for $2.9 million. Milford-based Julian Enterprises purchased the 24,866-square-foot building on 1.05 acres. BAO Partners LLC owns the property at 418 Meadow St. Angel Commercial Senior Vice President Brett A. Sherman represented the seller, and Lester Fradkoff represented the buyer in the transaction.
REM TO PAY $1.5M IN SETTLEMENT FOR ABUSING MEDICAID PROGRAM REM Connecticut Community Services has entered into a civil settlement with the federal and state governments in which it will pay $1.5 million to resolve allegations that it received overpayments from the state Medicaid program. REM, formerly of Middletown, operated multiple group homes that provided residential and day services to the intellectually disabled and at-risk youth. The company ceased state operations at the end of 2014. It is alleged that REM reported certain interest expenses as allowable costs in the annual reports of residential and day services that were not allowable under the state’s cost standards. Consequently, the government alleges the company received overpayments from Medicaid that it was not entitled to. REM has agreed to pay $1.5 million to the federal and state governments. A portion of the settlement amount will be satisfied by the government retaining nearly $1.2 million that was suspended by the state due to the company’s questionable billing practices. The remaining $310,975 will be paid by REM collectively to the federal and state governments.

OMEGA Engineering, a global instrumentation company, will relocate its corporate headquarters in Stamford with a 26,995-squarefoot office lease in Norwalk. The company will move to 800 Connecticut Ave., a 412,000-square-foot property owned by CBRE Strategic Partners U.S. Value 7, a fund sponsored by CBRE Global Investors. CBRE represented the building ownership in the lease negotiations. Steve Baker of Cushman & Wakefield acted on behalf of OMEGA Engineering. “800 Connecticut Ave. is one of the very few office buildings in the market that caters to TAMI tenants and Millennial employees, offering coworking and collaborative spaces as well as full Wi-Fi connectivity,” David Block of CBRE said in a statement. “OMEGA Engineering’s commitment to relocate its corporate operations from Stamford speaks directly to the allure of the property and the entire Norwalk submarket to global companies.” CBRE acquired 800 Connecticut Ave. last fall and plans to make $7 million worth of improvements, including a host of amenities and a new glass canopy. Other tenants include Priceline and Octagon.
HOME SALES UP AGAIN WITH DOUBLE-DIGIT INCREASE FOR 7TH CONSECUTIVE MONTH Single-family home sales in the Nutmeg State rose 23.9 percent in May, according to the latest report from The Warren Group, publisher of The Commercial Record.

This marked the highest number of sales in the month of May since 2007, when there were 3,039 homes sold. Year-to-date, sales were up 23 percent with 10,913 transactions, compared with 8,872 during the same timeframe a year ago. May also saw the largest percentage decrease in the median sale price in five consecutive months. The median price of a single-family home dropped by 7.2 percent to $246,000, compared with $265,000 a year ago. Year-to-date, prices are down 1.4 percent to $235,000 compared with $238,307 year-over-year. “Single-family home sales have hit double-digit percentage increases for seven consecutive months, for the first time since 2009,” Timothy M.

Attracting Talent
BROKER/OWNERS WANT TO RECRUIT, RETAIN TOP PRODUCERS Corporate Culture Key To Keeping Salespeople Satisfied
BY JIM MORRISON | COMMERCIAL RECORD STAFF
S
uccessful real estate agencies must carefully balance time spent recruiting great agents and time spent retaining the ones they already have – and these days, that’s harder than ever. For some, it’s not about “recruiting;” it’s about “attracting talent.” “We have a strong focus on high-caliber professionals,” said Candace Adams, president and CEO of BHHS New England Properties. “We’re bringing in new and experienced people, and we stress reputation. We’re trying to maintain the high quality of the brand. We try to target high-caliber agents in other firms” to bring them to one of the agency’s 50 offices statewide. Adams is particularly interested in hiring agents who can relate to and work well with the next big homebuying demographic – and she requires all agents to work full-time.
“We’ve had a focus on Millennials – highly skilled, professional young people,” Adams said. “We have a nice platform for them to come into the business. We’re being selective and making sure we vet them.” Other offices find their agents in the same way they find their clients – through referrals. That’s the case at Pearce Properties’ nine offices, where they’re also looking for top young talent. “We get most of our agents through referrals from current agents; that’s the most effective way,” said Barbara Pearce, president and CEO. “We also train new agents. We actually have a cohort of Millennial agents, all men, who started within the last three years. We’ve done very well with them. Everyone
10 | THE COMMERCIAL RECORD | JULY 2016
has the same problem. The median age of a real estate agent keeps going up.” Recruiting talented agents is even more complicated for a large firm like Coldwell Banker of Connecticut and Westchester County. Chuck Cusson, vice president of operations, manages more than 50 offices across a diverse geographic area, and the recruiting needs vary widely between offices. “We have a great cross-section of agents who we’re looking to attract and Millennials are part of that,” he said. “Our office leaders really look at their area and identify great agents, as well as new licensees, to determine who we want to bring on board. That affords us the ability to create the right mix of agents who complement each other.” And of course, firms are competing with each other to attract top talent. “We compete with both bigger and smaller firms,” Pearce said. “Every firm has its own personality. Our sweet spot is people who want the feel of a small firm and the ability to get paid the same day and the ability to reach a top manager easily, but also have the IT services and relocation services of a big firm. People commonly say, ‘I don’t want to go somewhere where I’m just a number.’ We all lose agents to smaller firms who don’t provide support or charge fees.”
Diversity Challenges According to the 2016 National Association of Realtor Membership Profile Report, the typical Realtor is a 53-year-old white woman. Many in the industry see that as an obstacle to connecting with Millennials, the next big cohort of homebuyers, as well as people of color. Pearce said it’s harder than ever to ensure her agents mirror the communities they serve. “Yes, I think everyone is having that problem,” she said. “The applicant pool does not look like the community.”
The aging of the workforce – and its rapidly approaching retirement – has its roots in an era long gone by, Pearce said. When many of these agents started in the industry, women were underpaid and marginalized in the workforce, without a lot of career options. Working mothers who found it difficult to simultaneously punch a clock and raise children found real estate sales a good fit, especially if they were married to someone working full time. Without a second, steady income stream, real estate can be a difficult career for young, single adults, she said. Cusson said the struggle to maintain a diverse sales force varies by market in his region, but what is constant is his commitment to striking the right balance. “This company was founded on diversity,” he said. The firm has an internal team that works to celebrate and honor diversity throughout the company, a support “that comes down from the corporate headquarters throughout the branch offices,” Casson said. “That’s our belief and an absolute foundation of our company, and a big part of how we support the global network. When you go to a Coldwell Banker event, you may meet agents from around the world.”
Once You Have Them, How Do You Keep Them? One of the key components of keeping agents happy – and thus keeping them in the firm – is a manager whose sole focus is on their employees, said those interviewed. The manager does not list or sell homes; they do not compete for the agents’ business, but rather are a resource for the agents’ continued success. “We have strong emphasis on culture, ethics, values and integrity,” Adams said. “The environment we provide is safe, flexible, professional, creative and supportive. Our agents get individual coaching and business planning. They’re strong and can give their clients anything they need. We’ve had our best year ever in attracting and retaining talent.” Cusson said his company places a high emphasis on recognizing the success of his agents. They also invest in agents’ education. “Support is the greatest thing you can offer sales associates,” he said. “This market is one of those challenging markets. It’s less
predictable and deals are more and more difficult. We have at least one support administrator in each branch office to support agents and help them work through transactions. We also have an entire team processing transactions. That means agents can do what they do best: be out in the field. We consistently hear from our agents that the biggest reasons they’re with us are the strength of their office manager and the education we provide.” Pearce said her agents expect a level of professionalism they won’t find in other companies. She also says agents who are interested in better splits or lower fees have to do a bit of homework to ensure they’re comfortable with the accompanying reductions in support services. “You can always find a better split or lower fees,” Pearce said. “Our constant struggle is to explain our commission plan. Big brokers know that it all comes out to about the same. It’s a constant struggle to get people to do the math. It’s harder than it used to be, because there are more choices today. You can get any kind of plan you want. The same thing isn’t right for everyone.” Recruiting and retention are on a col-
lision course, Pearce said; spending too much energy on one causes the other to suffer, so balance is crucial. Retaining agents is all about creating the right corporate culture; every company has its own personality, and the trick is to find agents who resonate with it. “You try to make your company feel like a family, so agents have the sense they belong to a culture; they don’t want to leave their friends and family,” she said. “For example, this year we had a corporate meeting on the day that would have been my father’s 100th birthday. Even though it was far away, we had incredibly high attendance. It was a great day. People spent the whole day together.” Cusson said that at the end of the day, for some agents, it all comes down to dollars and cents. “We have some agents who affiliate with us because we’re a global brand with offices in a number of countries around the world,” he said. “If an agent sees that affiliating with a specific office allows them to do more deals, then that’s where they go.” n Email: jmorrison@thewarrengroup.com

Choosy Candidates
IT’S A COMPETITIVE JOB MARKET – IF YOU’RE HIRING
Downturn Left Lasting Impression On Design Industry
BY STEVE ADAMS | COMMERCIAL RECORD STAFF
T
he Great Recession erased years of price appreciation in residential and commercial properties, but it had a littlenoticed effect on the job market as well. The downturn discouraged college students from pursuing jobs in the beatendown development sector. Nearly a decade later, the industry is still feeling the effects, with a drought of qualified candidates competing for job openings in the architecture field. “There’s a three- to five-year gap where all of those people who were pursuing architecture coming out of college pursued jobs elsewhere,” said Joseph Vallone, founder of a Greenwich architecture and development firm. “It’s difficult to find the person who doesn’t have 10 years’ experience.” The high cost of living along the Con-
necticut coastline and the preference of recent college grads to pursue jobs in larger cities also constricts the recruiting process, industry sources say. A recruitment specialist for a national architectural firm with local offices in New Haven County said candidates can afford to be choosy, and salary is secondary to job satisfaction and career advancement opportunities. “There are a lot more opportunities out there, and the smart candidates are savvy about that,” he said. “They know that they need to be selective looking at the right opportunities. They aren’t looking at the (salary) numbers, they are looking at cul-

tural fit and the types of projects they can work on: the hierarchy at the studio and how they can fit in.” The source, who requested anonymity because of competitive considerations, said the firm has augmented traditional recruiting channels with social media channels, but campus outreach remains the primary source of entry-level candidates. Career fair interviews, if successful, proceed to follow-ups, typically in the form of videoconference interviews for out-of-state candidates and in-person meetings for finalists. With most candidates coming from out-of-state, the firm sometimes struggles to educate them about the details of working in the region. “It’s not a known quantity and there are a lot of questions about what it’s like to live there,” he said. “We do a fair amount of talking about New Haven as a place.”
In Greenwich, it’s still a “challenging” climate for recruiting at Douglas VanderHorn Architects, said William Malmstedt, an associate partner. Earlier this year, after several months looking to fill a junior-level opening, the firm ended up filling the position from within, Malmstedt said. “Unless you’re able to plan well in advance, it’s still difficult to find the right people,” he said. Part of the problem, Malmstedt said, is the high cost of housing in Fairfield County, which is a shock to candidates coming right out of college from outside the region. Most newer employees live with roommates. “We let them know in advance what they’re getting into. It’s not like it’s just 10 percent more,” he said.

A recruitment specialist for a national architectural firm with local offices in New Haven County said candidates can afford to be choosy, and salary is secondary to job satisfaction and career advancement opportunities. tween appearances at college job fairs and reliance on industry recommendations. Industry sites with job boards such as Archinect and Architzer are a starting point, and connections through LinkedIn, Twitter and even Craigslist yield leads. But at a firm with 13 employees, the deciding factor usually comes down to culture fit, Malmdstedt said. “Because we’re in such a specialized profession, we’re most concerned about their ability to do the sort of work we’re looking to do,” he said. “We don’t expect them to know everything straight out of
college. Everyone we’ve brought in has blended in well enough. Especially in this profession, everyone has their quirks, but you learn to live with them.” The recruiter for the New Haven-area firm agreed that compatibility with the workplace vibe can be the single biggest factor in a hiring decision. “We’re not a big office and there’s not a lot of places to hide, so we just need everybody to work collegially and collaboratively,” he said. n Email: sadams@thewarrengroup.com

JULIA ANNE M. SLOM SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT AND TEAM LEADER, COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE GROUP, WASHINGTON TRUST At first, Slom didn’t intend to stay long in the banking industry, but since landing at Washington Trust, she’s seen the bank grow from $400 million in assets to nearly $4 billion today. How would you characterize much of the commercial real estate deals you’ve been doing in Connecticut lately? We’ve done quite a bit of retail, especially in the Fairfield County market. … It’s both acquisition and refinance, plus some redevelopment of existing stuff and then also some ground-up construction. And really all property types: retail, industrial, office and multifamily. We haven’t done as much [industrial] in Connecticut as in the Boston area and a little bit in Providence. But we have some up in the Windsor Locks area. What do you think about the competitive landscape in Connecticut? The big banks, in a lot of cases, are not looking at the same deals we are, [and when they are], if they’re big enough, we partner with them. … All of our competition is friendly competition because a lot of times we’re working together on a deal. I think in Connecticut, the competition is very healthy.
JOSEPH A. VALVANO PRESIDENT, COLDWELL BANKER RESIDENTIAL, CONNECTICUT AND WESTCHESTER COUNTY After buying their first piece of real estate around the time they got married, Valvano and his wife were hooked. They bought more real estate, got their real estate licenses and soon bought a real estate office. You and your wife went from being sales agents to owning an office fairly quickly. How did that happen? We had bought a duplex just before we got married and moved in after the wedding. We rented out the other side. Shortly thereafter, we bought a vacant lot and designed and built a home. … The real estate firm we worked with was for sale. So, we sold the investment property and used the proceeds to buy this little real estate firm and grew it to the point where we had the number-one market share in the area. The year is off to a good start; do you expect to finish that way? We’re in an interesting time because interest rates are low and the financial markets are fairly strong. … When consumers are more confident, they’re more apt to buy a higher-ticket item. If all of a sudden there’s a negative world event and interest rates go up, the real estate market is going to suffer.
KATHRYN SHAFER DEPUTY POLICY DIRECTOR, PARTNERSHIP FOR STRONG COMMUNITIES Shafer develops and advocates on behalf of policies that support a broad range of housing opportunities in Connecticut communities, both in her current role at the Partnership for Strong Communities and her previous position at the Women’s Institute for Housing and Economic Development. How do you gauge the effectiveness of the Incentive Housing Zone program? You look at it from the whole ecosystem. The backdrop is there are a lot of communities where it’s difficult to develop mixed-income and affordable housing. The incentive housing zone was advanced because we thought it was important for towns to look at affordable housing outside of projects under review. And that’s hugely important, as opposed to being in a reactive and defensive position. What are the partnership’s top priorities for the legislative agenda? Certainly we realize Connecticut is in a difficult budget climate but we continue to advocate for programs to end homelessness. We’re also working to find resources that help us address homelessness among youth, and funding for creation of affordable housing for families as a foundation of opportunity.

This month’s list features homes with smaller lot sizes and several that were built in the 19th century, but the home in the number three spot stands out as an excellent example of classic Victorian-era design. The eight-bedroom, five-and-ahalf bathroom home has a wraparound, covered porch, is filled with period details and sits on a 1-acre lot on the Belle Haven peninsula. There are high ceilings, fireplaces, a butler’s pantry, built-in bookshelves and an updated, eat-in kitchen, a master bedroom suite – and it’s all a short walk to the water.
