Ask to join a meeting…don't wait to be asked, said panelists at this year's GlobeSt. ELITE Woman of Influence event.
In the morning keynote discussion at GlobeSt. ELITE Women of Influence conference, a leading CRE developer in the region and a real estate economist teamed up to discuss their experiences in shaping the face of real estate. They discussed the trials and tribulations of rising to the top in a male-dominated industry, and hopes for the future of women in the real estate industry.
When asked what speaker Heidi Learner, chief economist at Savills, learned from her days on Wall Street and how it helped her in the CRE industry, she simply said that there is no easy way to get where you want to be. “You pay your dues and work your way up over time.”
