Olympia Management, Inc., is proud to honor a very special husband and wife team, Mike and Dot Brown, for their remarkable work ethics and dedication to their job and tenants in our “Employee Spotlight.”
Dot is the Manager and Mike is the Maintenance Man for a 72-unit property. Dot and Mike have been with their property for 10 years. Olympia Management, Inc., knows that Dot and Mike go above and beyond what is required.
Dot and Mike have numerous activities planned for their community each month like potluck gatherings, game night, movie night, occasional exercise classes and “Fun Time” gatherings with coloring, eating, and playing. They also gather with the children of the complex to make cards for the hospital and nursing home residents for Easter, Valentine’s Day and Christmas. Seasonal activities include an Easter event with an egg hunt, Halloween fun time, Thanksgiving gathering and a Christmas Event. They go all out with decorations for the holidays which make all of the tenants enjoy the holidays more.
“To me, that proves they care about us because they take the time to do this.” A.L.
Dot and Mike take a personal interest in each family and meeting individual’s needs before a problem may exist. They visit them in the hospital with flowers and cards. They check on tenants who are ill at home, as well as senior tenants who do not have much family support and occasionally help them with errands. Tenants feel safe and secure with a watchful eye on the complex’s community. Mike takes good care of the property maintaining its beauty and quickly addresses any maintenance issues.
Being very involved with the area community, Dot and Mike encourage tenants to participate in community service projects such as Ronald McDonald House Fun Day, Azalea City Run, and Relay for Life. They also organized donations for “Warm Coats for Homeless,” and Thanksgiving food for local Cub Scouts. Currently, they are scheduling speakers for “Safety Awareness” with the county Fire Department and for “Drug Awareness Program and Drug-Free Area” with the County Sheriff’s Department.
Praise and support for Dot have come from prominent members of the community such as a State Senator, the local Mayor, and a former county Sheriff when she was nominated for Manager of the Year with Alabama Affordable Housing Association.
“As manager, Dot goes the extra mile with her love and genuine concern for all the tenants . . . providing a superb living environment for all the families.”
Rusty Glover, States Senator, District 34
“ . . . it has come to our attention that Mrs. Brown manages this property with the utmost attention to detail, ensuring that her tenants are safe and the property is in its best condition.”
David Baker, Mayor, City of Semmes
“Mrs. Brown is also involved in community activities and through her efforts has helped many young people advanced their careers.”
Jack Tillman, Retire Sheriff, Mobile County
