In the new year, Macek intends to focus much of the Institute's energy on expanding its new blended learning educational delivery model across the entire curriculum while continuing to f ne-tune the format. "T e goal of our educational platform is to pro- vide focused, relevant, and timely education," he says. "What makes CCIM's education so unique and unmatched in the industry is that it is taught by some of the best practitioners in the commercial real estate business." With more than 25 years of experience in commercial real estate bro- kerage, property management, and development, Macek also plans to broaden the CCIM brand. "One of my goals is to enhance CCIM's image in the commercial real estate industry to ensure our clients understand the added value of working with a CCIM designee," he says. "Increasing awareness of our brand and the value it represents will have a signif cant impact on the success of our members." As a longtime member of CCIM's Board of Directors as well as a member of the Strategic Planning Committee, Member Services Committee, and Legislative Af airs Subcommittee, Macek's keen under- standing of the Institute will guide the organization in its quest to pro- vide improved services for members. "Our mission is to elevate our members to the highest levels of success in our profession," he says. "It is a privilege to serve our mem- bers in CCIM's ongoing ef orts to educate, designate, and support the best commercial real estate practitioners in the world."
