Are you gaining years of experience—or repeating the same year over and over again?

In multifamily, career growth doesn’t automatically come with time, a promotion, or a new title. It comes from staying curious, seeking feedback, building new capabilities, and being willing to admit, “I don’t know…yet.”

In this episode of The Property Playbook, Rory Anderson sits down with Jared Forman, founder of AdaptIncrease and a workforce learning and performance expert with more than 15 years of experience in talent development, onboarding, leadership, and performance support.

Together, they unpack what growth mindset actually looks like in multifamily—not as a motivational buzzword, but as a practical approach to becoming better at your job and building a stronger career.

Jared shares how he entered affordable housing without deep industry expertise and learned to overcome the fear of looking inexperienced by surrounding himself with subject-matter experts and asking questions.

The conversation also tackles one of the biggest questions in property management: How do you prepare for the next level before someone gives you the title?

Jared explains why professionals should stop obsessing over promotions and start identifying the capabilities required for the role they want.
