Championing Women in Commercial Real Estate
The Journey has Begun…

Commercial Real Estate (CRE), though a highly regarded industry, has historically been male dominated. In more recent times, women have begun to enter the industry, but they fall short in numbers, especially in leadership roles. These could be attributed to reasons of a non-inclusive board room, jobs demanding high levels of personal commitments, challenges in re-entry to the workforce after a period of leave, etc. Women may enter the workforce with the intent to move up the ranks and develop their skills, but culturally, the struggle to overcome traditional mindsets about the distribution of work between genders and the lack of a support system could also be contributing to this trend. Thankfully, over the past decade, a lot has changed for the better – women are beginning to scale new heights, changing not only their own standing but the terrain of the field itself. Today, women are excelling in all sectors and real estate is no different.
