LAS VEGAS—CREW Network has launched the CRE Pledge for Action, an industry-first, CEO-driven initiative that is designed to advance women, and elevate actions that encourage greater diversity, equity and inclusion in the commercial real estate industry. Many CEOs from leading commercial real estate industry companies have already made a commitment. 

By signing on, these progressive business leaders are pledging to take action and hold themselves and their employees responsible for implementing initiatives that advance women and DEI, according to a prepared release.

 "The CREW Network CRE Pledge for Action is a relevant, meaningful and actionable initiative that aligns well with the significant transformation currently underway globally," said Wendy Mann, CREW Network CEO, in the statement. "CEOs from leading commercial real estate companies understand they must be proactive and quickly act to address this fundamental issue in the workplace. CREW Network applauds those who've joined with us already, and we encourage and urge more firms across the CRE industry to be a part of this ground-breaking initiative."
