Image courtesy of Jessica Fiur<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The 2022 CREW Network Convention in Chicago covered major issues concerning the commercial real estate industry. Here are some of the main insights from the first day of sessions.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The Metaverse and VR are our friends<\/strong>. According to Michelle Sipics, director, technology innovation office of special projects, <strong>Accenture<\/strong>, because the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/cdo-stack-the-metaverse-and-why-cre-should-care\/\">Metaverse is still emerging<\/a>, CRE executives can become subject matter experts. Virtual reality can be used for training, digital twinning (so that people can interact safely with real technology in a factory, for example) and for walking through floorplans to make sure the space makes sense.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t fear technology. <\/strong>The commercial industry can be slow to adapt to technology. But that\u2019s a losing strategy. \u201cThe industry has gotten a lot more competitive,\u201d Eric Frank, chief executive officer, LightBox, said. \u201cIf you\u2019re not out front, you\u2019re going to lose.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>READ ALSO<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/the-cdo-stack-cres-top-tech-tools\/\">CRE\u2019s Top Tech Tools<\/a><\/p>\n<hr>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Adaptive reuse\u2019s secret weapon? ESG. <\/strong>KC Conway, commercial real estate economist and futurist, <strong>Red Shoe Economics<\/strong>, said that an effective way to get adaptive reuse projects to move forward is to make sure it restores green space. \u201cNo one wants to say they\u2019re anti-ESG,\u201d he said.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rituals make employees happy. <\/strong>If you\u2019re team is going back to the office, come up with a routine that is purposeful, intentional and meaningful so they feel like they\u2019re an important part of the team. \u201cWhen people feel like they belong, they\u2019re 47 percent more collaborative,\u201d author Erica Keswin said. But if you are planning personal or professional development, or even a fun bonding event, just make sure it\u2019s during work hours, or it\u2019ll be a \u201crecipe for resentment,\u201d she said.<\/li>\n<li><strong>COVID didn\u2019t change how we work. It just sped things up. <\/strong>\u201cThe pandemic drop kicked us 10 years into the future,\u201d Marci Rossell, former <strong>CNBC<\/strong> Chief economist &amp; co-host of <strong>Squawk Box<\/strong>, said. Rossell claimed that we were all heading towards a four-day work week at the office, eventually working in the office even left. We just got there faster now that everyone worked from home during 2020.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CRE experts at the Chicago event share their views on what\u2019s to come in the industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":443,"featured_media":1004603998,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21808,23891,21742,21787],"tags":[33188],"class_list":["post-1004603961","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured","category-national","category-latest","category-technology","tag-crew-network"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Top 5 Insights From CREW Network, Day 1 - Commercial Property Executive<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The 2022 CREW Network Convention in Chicago covered major issues concerning the commercial real estate industry.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/top-5-insights-from-crew-network-day-1\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Top 5 Insights From CREW Network, Day 1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The 2022 CREW Network Convention in Chicago covered major issues concerning the commercial real estate industry.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/top-5-insights-from-crew-network-day-1\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Commercial Property Executive\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CPExecutive\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-09-23T11:12:03+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2022-12-09T10:11:52+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2022\/09\/CREW-network.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"640\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"480\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Jessica Fiur\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@cpexecutive\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@cpexecutive\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/top-5-insights-from-crew-network-day-1\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/top-5-insights-from-crew-network-day-1\/\",\"name\":\"Top 5 Insights From CREW Network, Day 1 - Commercial Property Executive\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/top-5-insights-from-crew-network-day-1\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/top-5-insights-from-crew-network-day-1\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2022\/09\/CREW-network.jpg\",\"datePublished\":\"2022-09-23T11:12:03+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-12-09T10:11:52+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/#\/schema\/person\/0bf67d338f2b97c9e1194fabf816e9c3\"},\"description\":\"The 2022 CREW Network Convention in Chicago covered major issues concerning the commercial real estate industry.\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/top-5-insights-from-crew-network-day-1\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/top-5-insights-from-crew-network-day-1\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/top-5-insights-from-crew-network-day-1\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2022\/09\/CREW-network.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2022\/09\/CREW-network.jpg\",\"width\":640,\"height\":480,\"caption\":\"2022 CREW Network Convention, Day 1.
