The DEI Committee in collaboration with the Sustainability, Young Leaders & Career Development Committees present "Black Leadership In Corporate Real Estate" event. The commercial real estate industry’s efforts to diversify workforce and suppliers requires deliberate focus. For many talented people of color, representation matters – it shapes an understanding of leadership roles, job functions and what excellence looks like in role models. CoreNet NYC supports the advancement of our Black colleagues by hosting The Black Excellence in Real Estate Forum. This in-person event features Black real estate executives from a wide range of expertise, sharing their success stories. The event will also offer an opportunity to a select group of high school and college students from underrepresented backgrounds to learn about various career paths within real estate and design. The goal of the event is to create a forum for networking while improving diversity, equity and inclusion from different segments of the industry.
