Mission Statement

At Book and Ladder, we create a home for our guests where we connect, imagine, and exceed expectations, so that together we can become something more.

Our Goal

To revolutionize the way elevated housing and co-living are operated. We are more than managers and operators. We’re attempting to create an atmosphere that inspires the imagination and intellect of every resident, where delivering that experience is a passion of ours and where our four pillars are embedded in our daily thought process.

Four Pillars

These pillars put an emphasis on ingenuity, innovation, and quality. Ultimately, we want everyone to understand that frontline equals bottom-line. In other words, by putting an emphasis on customer satisfaction, we are playing the long game, and betting that putting our resources into the immediate overall experience of our guests will produce greater revenue in the future.

01 / Connect

We connect with our employees.

Together we are strong. We make connections in our teams, and with other teams, whether at other properties or our corporate office. We are supportive, kind, helpful and willing to learn and help. We believe in creating a workplace no one will want to leave, where we cultivate fulfillment, joy and growth.

We connect with our residents.

No one cares how much you know, until they know how much you care. We show, not tell, how to create a home for our guests that they will make them enthusiastically fulfilled, want to stay longer, and bring their friends to join them.

We hope our relationships with guests will yield:

Process

How can we provide products and services faster, more efficiently, or with better outcomes?

03 / Exceed

Ultimately, we strive to exceed expectations in everything we do. We don’t believe in just enough. How can we exceed what we did last year? Last month? Last week?

Exceed the normal in our real estate. Make sure it sparkles. Exceed the industry expectations for the brick and mortar we care for and present as our product.

Exceed the average service quality. How do we serve, how often, and to what extent? We will exceed customer service expectations in every facet.
