Introduction
Due to the nature of F3GROUP; our ownership of leading development management consultancy F3 develop and our strong links with fu3e. cloud fusion software, we are in a rare position to be able to talk and interact with equanimity across the property, real estate and technology sectors.
It was that unique vantage point that led to the creation of maniF3sto, initially a discussion across our industries with a view to digitally positing various viewpoints and insights. Such was the feedback from the first edition however that we created a hard copy magazine led from the cover by an inspirational leader across any field, Sir Clive Woodward.
The momentum for the second issue has grown exponentially to the point where issue 2; The Leadership MMXXI, is now a 150 page plus hard copy magazine plus a digital online version with content spreading across the next three months.
Leaders from across the industry and beyond have given their time and insights to create a fascinating compendium of news and views as we come out of what has been an unprecedented period.
Market leaders from JLL and CBRE to Colliers and Harrison Street as well as experts from across the leadership and executive fields capture a fascinating starting point to what many of us hope will be a “Roaring 20s”.
With ESG being such a major driver for all of us, we have an exclusive interview with none other than the UN Patron of the Oceans, Lewis Pugh, and his vital if not tragic report back on what our current behaviours are doing to the planet we inhabit and why building and living ESG and environmental best practice is essential. It’s refreshing to see how this theme also extends across the discussion of every leader interviewed.
Leadership is nothing without Teamship and this year, in the world of sport, we are seeing that exemplified by the British & Irish Lions Tour to South Africa. Rugby and sport has always had a strong heritage within F3 and we’re very lucky not only to get insights from Lions coach Warren Gatland, but also from our own Lion, CCO Rob Henderson (Australia 2001).
This issue also sees the launch of the new fu3e. cloud fusion software brand and website.
fu3e. provides automation with intelligence. Built by executives for executives it fuses data to deliver business solutions; digitising processes, reducing cost base, empowering teams and managing teams, risk and costs effectively.
Described as a game changer, it improves ESG targets, offers an IRR 50x and through its single pane of glass automated technology works to make everyone in the capital stack from funds, management teams, platforms and consultancies 100% more effective.
Leadership, teamship and the digital world are going to be the key parts of the fusion of how we do business emerging from the challenges that will now be the catalyst for our future.
I hope you enjoy the insights from an incredible group of people and give you – the LEADERSHIP MMXXI.
