Garden Spot Communities CEO Included in 2025 Forecast

January 2, 2025

Senior Housing News recently connected with senior living industry leaders to get their insight on the upcoming challenges and opportunities for growth in the industry. Garden Spot Communities CEO Steve Lindsey was included in the recap article, which was released in early 2025.

Steve’s comments said in part, “Futurist Bob Johansen has said that in the future, “Anything that can be distributed will be distributed … The practices of centralized organizations will become brittle in a future where authority is radically decentralized.” This shift will require new operating systems, so crafting culture and systems that resonate with a changing workforce will become an even higher priority for leadership.

“Social responsibility will continue to broaden in scope. At Garden Spot Communities, our envisioned future is to “Spark a Pro-Aging Revolution,” so we are looking forward to other changes as well. There is a growing discontent with rising levels of isolation, and we see 2025 as a year where the pendulum begins to shift back and people begin to see the benefits of living in a true community. We will begin to have more conversations about how the consumerist model of American culture has failed us, and we all need to be more involved in shaping the culture we desire in order to achieve the outcomes we need for our children and grandchildren to thrive.

“This means that our senior living communities could (and should) be viewed as repositories of wisdom, life experience, and knowledge that can become hubs and resources for our larger communities—places where relationships between diverse people are facilitated as we explore what it means to be a true elder in our 21st-century world—where we reject the idea that age is a liability, but simply a reality that can be leveraged in ways that improve the life of the individual, the well-being of the community, and benefit society.”
