Show Notes
In this episode, Kerri Davis, CEO and Founder of Fortress, sits down with Stacy Ekholm, Vice President of Operations at Schafer Richardson, for an inspiring conversation about leadership, scaling organizations, and embracing humility in the multifamily and construction industries. Listen in to hear Stacy:
- Share her journey from starting as an 18-year-old leasing agent to leading operations across property management, HR, IT, marketing, and construction—and how her passion for housing and design shaped her career path
- Break down Schafer Richardson’s rollout of EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System), including building culture through core values, creating accountability, and turning skeptics into champions of change
- Reflect on being “the stupidest person in the room on purpose,” lessons from the best-worst boss, and why trust, curiosity, and authenticity are the cornerstones of great leadership
