Supporting a new team more than 11,000 miles away from the Santa Barbara headquarters required creativity, cultural savvy, a bold sense of exploration\u2014and of course, technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since then, the Yardi Systems Pty Ltd. has established itself as a trusted leader in proptech. That trust has developed in part due to the marketing team which consists of three members serving from Sydney and Singapore. The team builds association relationships and develops the Yardi profile as trusted partners to and supporters of the real estate industry. This is done through content-rich materials such as white papers, articles, online events and APAC\u2019s biggest initiative, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yardi.com\/blog\/global\/asia-tech-outlook\/28211.html\">APAC-wide PropTech survey<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The team is also responsible for translating Yardi\u2019s global identity to the local markets. This includes marketing materials dedicated to the APAC region as well as sales and service materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Big fish, growing pond<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marketing manager Nina Feldman began her career with Yardi APAC five years ago. She was intrigued by working with a global organization that was relatively new to the region. \u201cI get to work in the most awesome corporate environment that also functions like a startup \u2013 this gives me a whole heap of challenges but lots of fun, too,\u201d says Feldman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yardi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/05\/thumbnail_image014.jpg?w=591\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29260\" width=\"296\" height=\"153\"\/><figcaption>Nina Feldman<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The APAC marketing team shifts through diverse workflows to accommodate the needs of the region\u2019s sales and services teams. She finds it challenging to balance local agility with the unique demands of a global organization. It\u2019s a challenge she tackles each day with the help of communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCommunication, communication, communication. I\u2019m a firm believer in one team, one dream. We&#8217;re all working for the same outcome. Whilst the ideal process never exists, I will always keep everyone in the loop so they feel informed and comfortable with whatever is happening or the timelines involved,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mingtiandi.com\/real-estate\/events\/join-the-mingtiandi-logistics-real-estate-forum-2021\/\">Get in-depth insights on local best practices at the Mingtiandi Asia Logistics Real Estate Forum, sponsored by Yardi.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Building cohesion while working thousands of miles apart<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sasha Shatilova and Ian Khoo are marketing associates in the APAC team.

Very geeky, I know, but we have really bonded as a team through that activity,\u201d says Shatilova.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Khoo adds, \u201cIt has been a complete work-from-home environment which eliminates that warmth you get when you are in an office. Thankfully, my marketing team has been really warm and supportive and daily video calls with them has generated that sense of camaraderie that you\u2019d get over office lunches.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both associates were pleasantly surprised by corporate culture at Yardi. \u201cThere is an incredible support system here at Yardi,\u201d says Shatilova. \u201cDespite it being a very large company, the culture is surprisingly flat. You really feel that your ideas are being respected and your voice heard.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Khoo agrees. \u201cI am able to feel a sense of community. Nobody shies away from extending a helping hand wherever possible, be it across the world in the U.K. or even locally in a separate department. There is a strong sense of collaboration within each project where everyone feels heard and feel like they are able to contribute their own ideas.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interested in becoming a Yardi team member?&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/careers.yardi.com\/\">Explore opportunities in your area<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Yardi expanded to the Asia Pacific (APAC) market 15 years ago, it entered uncharted territory.
