I first started working when I was 12 years old.

I'd go out in the morning at 7 a .m before the grass was even dry

and I would mow all day long barely pushing that lawnmower back through the door at 7 p .m at night.

It gave me a good taste for a serious work ethic and what it was to be responsible and dependable.

One of the things you learn

when you start a business really at any age is how

important it is to take care of the customer you know

when you build any organization you have to have family spirit it's one of those critical building blocks especially

when you're in the service business people have to come together work as a team enjoy what they're doing

and enjoy serving the client customer service is one of those

things you never really quit working on you're always trying to improve your operation

or at least you should be and And that's really what we're involved in now, is a journey through all departments of the company to become better next year than we were this past year.

You can't be successful in anything in life, whether it's personal or professional, without having integrity.

People need to know that when you say something, you mean it, that you follow through, that your word is good.

But you also have to be willing to be held accountable.

We are accountable to our clients our employees are accountable to

the leadership of an associate there's something special about a working relationship with others

when you know

that individual is looking out for you just as you're trying

to look out for them we count on people to come give their best each

and every day

and of course to be loyal to the company as they

should expect us to be to them as we mature

and as we grow older as a company you see more

and more successful initiatives to address the technological needs of our employees to make the work day easier

and better and more efficient for them but also to improve the relationship with our clients.

When you look at the values of a company you have to ask what does that really mean to the client?

Sustainability among other things is making sure that we are enhancing property values, that the work we do is actually meaningful, it's improving lives, it makes our communities more desirable to live in,

and in the end, it makes the properties within these communities that much more valuable.

These many associations have all sorts of complex security challenges, but it's our job to bring in the right professionals,

to analyze the situation, and to propose a solution that assures that these homes are safe, that the families, the people within these communities are safe,

and that people know the community by reputation as a safe place to be.

We don't want people to merely live behind the closed gates of these communities.

We want them to be involved.

We want them to know their neighbors, participate in their self -governance through their association.

We're not just there to do the accounting and the book work, but we actually want to be part of building community because that is what creates lasting value.

We constantly have to look for better technology, better ways to do things in a more efficient and a more cost -effective manner.

We owe that to ourselves as a business, but of course we also owe it to our clients.

As founder and CEO of Asocio, my promise to you, our clients, is that we will always uphold these values, that we believe in these values,

we run our company according to these values each and every day, and these are the same values

that will be in place for years to come as we continue our success for the benefit of you, the client.

Thank you.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
