Mark Rauenhorst
Chairman & CEO
Opus Corp.
Founded more than 50 years ago, Opus engrained its business in a single mission: Create great real estate. In keeping aligned with this foundation and the values of our company-integrity, respect for people, customer focus, and being market driven and community minded-I've tried to make all business and leadership decisions guided by these principles.
At Opus, creating great real estate means delivering projects on-time and on-budget while ultimately achieving clients' visions. Driven by company values and our design-build approach, Opus teams deliver a high level of excellence.
Creating great real estate also is reliant on innovation. Opus teams are challenged to bring fresh ideas to each project. In fact, innovation has expanded Opus' sustainable development practice and corporate intelligence. Harkening back to founding virtues, finding better ways to build is inherent in the company's design-build process.
Leaders are always challenged-in good times and bad. Today's industry leaders face uncharted times with an unknown future, so my advice at this time is grounded in Opus values. Foster open communication with company leadership and employees; create systematic efficiencies and provide employees with a vision and goal that give them purpose and guidance; establish and communicate concrete company goals that act as benchmarks during this turbulent market. Above all, remember the vision of the company and take steps to herald that vision despite the external circumstances.
