Property ManagementBackup & Coverage4HighManager$ implied
When a property management team member takes sick leave, no one covers their urgent tenant issues or emails, leading to tenant complaints and a backlog of 200+ emails upon return.
The company lacks any process or software to ensure coverage during absences, reflecting a cultural norm of not taking leave and no automated workflow redistribution.
