Earlier this month, Tracy Gibbons, MRED represented NAI Elliott at CREW Portland’s luncheon panel, “From Policy to Practice: The Real Impact of Public Programs on MWESB Growth.” The discussion highlighted how public programs drive inclusion for Minority, Women, and Emerging Small Businesses (MWESBs) through access to opportunities, financial support, strategic partnerships, and advocacy for equitable policies. Key takeaways included the benefits of: • Access to contracts and procurement opportunities • Financial resources through grants and loans • Strategic partnerships for long-term success • Networking to foster valuable relationships • Advocacy for equitable policies • Community-focused economic development Panelists also emphasized the importance of accountability and relationship-building, highlighting that real estate thrives on trust and collaboration. CREW Portland, a local chapter of the national CREW Network, plays a vital role in advancing women’s careers in commercial real estate.

Interesting read. And, the segment that stuck with me: Quote: 𝑰𝒏 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚 𝒍𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆 𝒐𝒓 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒌𝒔𝒉𝒐𝒑 𝑰 𝒓𝒖𝒏, 𝑰 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒕 𝒃𝒚 𝒂𝒔𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒑𝒆𝒐𝒑𝒍𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒆𝒆 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒅𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒅𝒆𝒔𝒄𝒓𝒊𝒃𝒆 𝒐𝒇𝒇𝒊𝒄𝒆 𝒑𝒐𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒔.

When women support each other at work, something truly wonderful happens. It's about more than just acknowledging achievements; it's about recognising potential, encouraging resilience, and extending a helping hand through challenges. This culture of support doesn't just enhance camaraderie—it constructs a foundation of empowerment that lifts everyone. Why is this essential? By celebrating each other’s successes genuinely and equitably, women can shift the focus from competition and insecurities to collaboration, fostering a positive environment 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞𝐝 𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬. #WomenSupportingWomen #Empowerment #Teamwork #WorkplaceCulture https://lnkd.in/g-GFrA_5

“Behind every successful woman is a tribe of other successful women (and men) who have their back” I just graduated from ANZ NSW/ ACT Women in Management Program 2024. I genuinely feel privileged to have been nominated by my manager Mark Simpson. Here are three things I’ve taken away from this program: ✅ Getting yourself out of your comfort zone: I was able to be vulnerable, but something I learnt was that the 39 other women in the room were in the same position as me. We were all working together to be better leaders in the business. ✅ The power of authentic communications: You have to be authentic, be yourself and be genuine. Be yourself when you’re communicating, trust yourself and back yourself - it goes a long way. ✅ Build a community around you: Knowing who you are, the values you hold and the art of storytelling will help you build a strong network of support. Speaking of getting myself out of my comfort zone, this is my first LinkedIn post (!!!). I’ll be continuing to use the tools provided to me from this amazing program, self-reflect, while connecting with other people so that we can become better leaders together.
