Bio
Taylor Brown joined The NRP Group in 2005, and by 2016 was named one of six NRP Principals and the President of NRP Construction. Over the past four years, Brown’s team has generated over $1.5 billion in construction revenue, expanded from 87 to 185 employees, and has achieved an NMHC #6 Top U.S. Multifamily Builder ranking two years in a row by starting 4,005 units in 2018 and 5,240 units in 2019 (+30% growth). During this time, Brown created a successful NRP third-party general contracting business which has quickly become a key contributor to growth.
In January 2020, the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) named Taylor Brown winner of the national multifamily Pillars of the Industry “One to Watch” award which recognizes young leaders who are making significant contributions to the multifamily industry and are expected to provide significant leadership for many years to come.
At NRP, Brown has achieved tremendous progress in the area of technology and process innovation. Under Taylor’s leadership, the company has developed and built a powerful proprietary process and workflow management tool called “NRP Connect” which integrates best-in-class external tools like Procore, P6, and Timberline Estimating. The entire platform has been engineered to be completely mobile-friendly and equally usable from an office computer to a job-site tablet. Through a constant stream of strategic technological innovations, Taylor has freed up immeasurable administrative work hours for our teams and has enabled our leaders to focus on people, projects and high-value mission critical duties. These efforts have contributed greatly to the accelerated growth of NRP Construction.
Brown has also fostered significant growth in the culture of NRP Construction. In addition to an annual all-hands “NRP Build Conference” which includes the entire construction organization, Brown has instituted quarterly leadership summits and ongoing one-on-one business coaching programs designed to enhance leadership skills, emotional intelligence, soft skills and management disciplines. His team has also instituted a very popular top-to-bottom quarterly bonus program which has increased focus, accountability and the immediacy of feedback and rewards. Brown has also exhibited a great ability to hire top talent and then provide the guidance, autonomy and resources they need to thrive once they arrive at NRP Construction.
