As a female business leader deeply invested in the real estate industry, I find it disheartening to see yet another list of the " Most Impactful Real Estate Leaders 2024" heavily dominated by male figures. This stark gender disparity not only reflects a systemic issue within our industry but also underscores the need for greater diversity and inclusion. It's imperative that we recognise and elevate the contributions of women leaders who are shaping the future of real estate. By actively promoting diversity at all levels, we not only foster innovation and creativity but also ensure a more equitable and prosperous industry for all stakeholders. Let's work together to break down barriers and create a more inclusive landscape where everyone has the opportunity to thrive and succeed. #Milkrealestate #forbesmiddleeast #womeninbusiness #diversity #equality #IWD2024 #UAE2024 #RealEstate

On International Women's Day, we wanted to take a moment to salute the women working to make a difference in real estate - whether it be through urban and civic planning, development, construction, or sales. Real estate - especially development - has been a traditionally male-dominsted industry, and female perspective is so important in creating spaces and communities that are inclusive and accessible. Here's a quote from one of our favorite real estate heroines, Jane Jacobs.

Accelerating the Advancement of Women in Commercial Real Estate (CRE). This BOMA Article speaks to the fact that the percentage of women in CRE hasn't changed much in the past decade. Many in the Caribbean region still see commercial real estate as a 'man's industry'. While the tips in the article are somewhat simple, I believe that they are important. I'm sharing in the hopes that young women are encouraged to put their stamps on this industry particularly in the Caribbean Region, as it can only benefit from the different perspectives and keen insights that women most often bring to the table.
