Dave Cairns is a Senior VP of CBRE Canada but he's unlike any commercial real estate broker you've ever met. His career began in online poker - a great example of transferable skills from an unconventional background setting someone up for success for the future of work. Digital collaboration, online learning, risk tolerance are all skills Dave used to pivot into real estate and his current "homead" version of remote work. He lives in PEI with his wife and young daughter and travels for work when necessary but most of his work is done from home.
We talk about space as a service, the benefits of remote work for small, rural communities, making friends and supporting neighbours. Co-working comes up too - it's not just the WeWork model anymore - there are residential coworking spaces in some smaller communities now too.
We also talk about using social media to be disruptive and how unconventional messaging to sell in a traditional industry carries it's own risks - coming from financial services, I can relate.
