TUSTIN, CA—One big misconception developing leaders have about the commercial real estate industry, especially for those who are just getting started, is that there are only a few roles and areas of focus, Swift Real Estate Partners investment manager Kelsey Stuart Schultes tells GlobeSt.com. Stuart Schultes, a member of NAIOP SoCal, is one of only seven recipients of NAIOP's prestigious Developing Leaders Award for 2017. The annual award honors up-and-coming professionals under the age of 35 for their exceptional accomplishments, strong leadership and community involvement.
In her role with Swift, Stuart Schultes is responsible for real estate acquisitions, dispositions and asset management in Southern California and Washington. Prior to joining Swift, she was an associate at Eastdil Secured, responsible for institutional office-investment sales in Orange County and Los Angeles. Her background also includes roles with ECP Commercial and Atlas REO in San Diego.
We spoke with Stuart Schultes about the award and what developing leaders need to focus on today.
