Most recently, he spearheaded global activity as UGL Services\u2019 group president. That position followed service as chief operating officer, Americas, for DTZ, and global head of corporate advisory services and capital markets for Trammell Crow Co.\u00a0Mohr Partners has big plans, so Shibuya will rely on every bit of his background as he tackles his new post because.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBob really appreciates that Mohr Partners is not a network or franchise but the largest wholly owned firm in North America that has been focused on exclusively corporate services,\u201d said Mohr. \u201cWhile our growth objectives and targets are ambitious, we are confident that Bob can achieve those in directing and leading the company forward.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shibuya takes over for Ted Fredericks, who recently stepped down as president following 11 years in the position and 17 years with Mohr Partners. Fredericks now serves as president emeritus.<\/p>\n<p>Finding Fredericks\u2019 successor was no simple task. Mohr Partners chose global executive search firm Korn Ferry to assist in a national search that ultimately resulted in the selection of six highly qualified candidates for interviews.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn this day of prominent production focused real estate providers, we wanted to look outside Mohr Partners for someone with deep management experience and knowledge of the industry,\u201d Mohr added. \u201cWe believe Bob\u2019s relocation to Dallas and his involvement with Mohr Partners in the past has created an excellent platform [from which] he can now easily move into the President\u2019s role.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shibuya, a 31-year industry veteran, served most recently as UGL Services&#8217; group president. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":969,"featured_media":1004101711,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21742,21744],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004101708","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest","category-people"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
