Terry Stiles, Chairman and CEO to Stiles Corporation, has been at the helm of this multi-faceted organization since 1971. The once-small residential construction company, originally formed by his father, Howard K. Stiles, in 1951, has seen tremendous growth under Terry's direction. Headquartered in his hometown of Fort Lauderdale , he has grown the full-service real estate company to one of the largest in the Southeast. With over 32 million square feet completed, Terry and his 530-person strong organization have garnered numerous awards for development and construction projects, such as office, mixed-use residential, retail shopping centers, build-to-suit facilities, and master-planned, mixed-use corporate parks. Well-respected by his peers within the industry, Terry has a history of being at the forefront of real estate trends, such as building the first master-planned corporate park in Broward County , or building the first speculative office building in an urban downtown area in the nation in five years. Stiles Corporation has a presence in Miami , Tampa , and Fort Myers , FL., with nearly six million square feet in progress. Beautifying and revitalizing the town where he grew up isn't the only difference he has made within the community. Terry has been an aggressive community worker using his position and the great resources of Stiles Corporation to help make a positive difference for today's youth and tomorrow's leaders. Terry donates his time, getting personally involved with organizations that support children, education, and family. He is a former President of the non-profit organization, Jack and Jill Children's Center, and headed up the capital campaign to build them a new children's resource center for underprivileged families. The building had its grand opening in Summer 2003, and it is more than just a housing facility. It is a 17,389 square foot facility able to accommodate 130 children ages birth to five. There are classrooms for kids and adults, a kitchen, administrative offices, a resource room, clothing bank, teachers' lounge, and 4,265 square foot outdoor playground. Many Stiles employees have followed Terry's example by donating their own time to read to the children on Friday afternoons; also, there is an organized monthly drive to donate food, clothes and household items to the center. His philanthropic leadership does not go unnoticed. In 2003, Terry was awarded Sun-Sentinel 's "Philanthropist of the Year" award. His leadership also includes roles such as Chairman of the Board of Jack & Jill Children's Center and past chair and current Board member of Museum of Discovery and Science. For all his community service, Terry's biggest reward comes from the many "thank-yous" he's received from children throughout the years. However, community recognition that he's proud of is: being named"Citizen of the Year," by the City of Fort Lauderdale in 1999; and being selected by the United Way as a "Community Hero" to carry the torch in the 1996 Olympic cross-country relay. In 2005 , Terry was presented with the first annual Industry Leader of the Year Award from the University of Florida Center for Real Estate Studies. He has received numerous other awards and honors from peers in his industry, including "National Developer of the Year" in 2000 from NAIOP (National Association of Industrial and Office Properties); NAIOP South Florida Chapter "Developer of the Year" in 2003, 1990, 1993, 1997, 1999; and distinguished "Lifetime Achievement Award" in 1997. NAIOP is an important organization to Terry and he had the great honor to serve as their National President from 1997-1998. Terry is currently an active member of the Broward County Airport Advisory Counsel and the Broward Workshop. Terry has three children, three grandchildren, and resides in Fort Lauderdale.
