Don Spencer graduated from Mississippi State University with a degree in Civil Engineering. His professional career is an interwoven background of civil engineering, construction, land development and corporate real estate/facilities management. Practical and theoretical foundations are combined with experience, knowledge and integrity.
He was engaged by William Jovanavich, Chairman of the diverse global publishing company, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich Inc., to establish a Real Estate Division that brought 54 subsidiaries (300+ industrial and office leases and 20 owned office and industrial buildings) under the control of one group, thus assuring that leases were administered properly, redundant space and buildings were eliminated, and facilities were properly designed and constructed. This consolidation of real estate activities resulted in $2 million in savings in the first year of operation and many millions over his tenure.
Don's visionary leadership was then sourced by multi-national corporation, Drake Beam Morin Inc., to examine its $34 million annual real estate budget for its 150 leases around the world. Through his needs assessment and exemplary team leadership, the company adopted a more efficient design standard that reduced office size by a 36% average. He also centralized and standardized the company’s real estate procedures and policies, eliminating nonessential space and wasted capital budget. A $4 million rental savings was realized in the first two years of application.
Don’s experience, knowledge and integrity establish him as a respected expert in the corporate real estate arena. His ability to comprehend the whole picture, create proper strategy and then direct, manage and coordinate players and teams to fulfill those strategies assures the company that their real estate is being managed effectively and efficiently.
