New Models for Leadership - Mike Matkins, Moderator

In a highly interactive session, a panel of ULI Trustees will share best practices and lessons learned about leading their organizations in the future. Are they using new models? Who are they emulating? Who is best of class? How do they “course correct?” What are they changing to adapt to uncertain times? What will be the most important leadership skills?

Re-Thinking The Office Market: Office Sector Realities and Strategies - John Tipton, Moderator

An anemic recovery and stubbornly high unemployment rate are leading office owners to consider a variety of office sector strategies. Come hear how industry leaders view the current office market as well as how they view their existing portfolios and new acquisition opportunities.

Event Overview

ULI’s Fall Meeting is the premier real estate industry event — the place where top leaders will meet to share strategies and solutions and hear about the trends and opportunities that will give them a competitive edge.  

What’s New:

• More opportunities to build relationships with prospective clients, business partners, and employers. This year’s Fall Meeting includes networking zones organized by product sector and roundtable sessions where you will meet industry leaders. 
• Sessions organized into tracks by product type so that you can attend all of the sessions most relevant to your business or learn what is happening in other sectors. Gain fresh insights and take home value that you can apply when you return to the office—mistakes made and lessons learned, live case studies, the best examples from around the world, and the forecasts you need to take the right strategic direction in the future.
• Hear about the latest trends and how they will affect your bottom line from top experts on capital markets, financing, demographics, and what’s next for real estate.
• Discover how Los Angeles underwent an amazing transformation from a “city without a soul” to an exciting, vibrant, global city.  Experience it—take innovative behind-the-scenes tours that you won’t find anywhere else, attend the opening session in the Nokia Theater, and enjoy ULI’s 75th anniversary blow out cocktail reception—a street party with a name band in the L.A. Live Plaza.
