A celebration of Chad Koenig’s work as he receives the award for Top 10 Office Tenant Rep Broker in Atlanta by the Atlanta Commercial Board of Realtors.
Dear Chad, Robert C. Goddard, III
3018 HABERSHAM ROAD, N.W. • ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30305
Many years ago, you were my ski instructor in Vail for a few years, a good one, too! Your energy, integrity, work ethic, drive to succeed, intelligence, and sense of adventure were obvious to anyone who came across your path, and that was certainly the case for me. Unlike so many who have fallen by the wayside, you are still that man. As I got to know you, other characteristics began to surface, like your attention to detail. You were clearly a young man of unlimited possibility, thinking of career choices and poised on the brink of choosing one.
Your drive and character made it inevitable that you would find success in any career path. I was fortunate to be in the right place and the right time to offer a new adventure - leave Vail's ski slopes and move across the country to Atlanta, Georgia, to seek a career in commercial real estate, and build a family here. I was not least bit surprised when you grabbed the offer with both hands...brought Kati with you and began to work.
My role as mentor was simply to guide your early steps as carefully as I could, and I trust that our joint efforts contributed to a solid foundation for your future success in our industry.
In thinking over the following years, as our careers have diverged and shifted, my mentoring role has diminished as your expertise and experience grew, leaving friendship in its place - an excellent exchange!
Please accept my greatest congratulations for achieving this ACBR recognition, for your determined and tenacious efforts to build an exceptional commercial real estate career!
Warmly,
