Office Principals

What are you all looking for in a project leasing team when entering a new market?

Potential career change from local generalist shop to top office brokerage. I'm curious, what are some factors (needs/wants) when selecting the leasing team and what motivates them as it fits with your strategy.

I'm trying to better understand the principal perspective when selecting a leasing team and their motivation as it aligns with their strategy.

I understand Owner strategies are different from developers to core so please clarify.

Also, please share any relevant stories where you decided against your original group because another group won you over.

Thanks in advance!
