- Navigating the CRE downturn’s drag on advisory revenue.
- Executing the ARGUS Intelligence upgrade cycle for revenue growth.

Question #1
As Hannon weighs strategic alternatives, is he more likely to pursue a disciplined path to value creation or will he be drawn to another high-risk, “bet the company” transaction similar to the failed Situs acquisition?
Question #2
When Hannon’s playbook for driving divisional growth clashes with the need for enterprise-wide discipline to navigate a downturn, does he have the adaptability to prioritize profitability and credibility over top-line momentum?
