We\u2019ve been inspired. We\u2019ve shouted it from the rooftops.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s 2023. But unfortunately, the glass ceiling is still very much a real thing for women. As we enter Women\u2019s History Month, we\u2019re reminded how far we have come as an industry, but also how far we still have to go.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/fortune.com\/2022\/03\/01\/it-is-past-time-for-women-to-lead\/\">Fortune.com<\/a>, only 8 percent of CEOs are female. And a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pewresearch.org\/fact-tank\/2021\/05\/25\/gender-pay-gap-facts\/\">2020 study<\/a> by the Pew Research Center showed that the U.S. gender pay gap has remained the same for 15 years, with women earning 84 percent of what men earned.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/mydigitalpublication.com\/publication\/?i=785164\" style=\"background-color:#00aeab\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">READ THE DIGEST<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>When you look at the commercial real estate industry, the numbers are even bleaker. The <a href=\"https:\/\/crewnetwork.org\/about\/resources\/industry-research\/gender-and-diversity-in-commercial-real-estate-202\">2020 CREW Network benchmark study, &#8220;Gender and Diversity in Commercial Real Estate,&#8221;<\/a> found that women only make up 37 percent of the industry and occupy only 9 percent of the C-suite, and that women earn 10 percent less than men in salaried positions.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s \u2026 not great.<\/p>\n<p>The industry <em>is<\/em> changing, though, and has made great strides toward equality with focuses on mentorship, leadership training and diverse hiring practices. And there are some great female executives who are doing important things for the real estate industry. Take, for instance, the very impressive women featured in Gail Kalinoski\u2019s article, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/10-female-leaders-in-commercial-real-estate\/\">10 Female Leaders in Commercial Real Estate<\/a>.\u201d Among them, CEOs, chief diversity, equity and inclusion officers, presidents and more. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is still a need for stronger representation of women in senior management and decision-making positions,\u201d Terri Adler, managing partner at Adler &amp; Stachenfeld LLP, told Kalinoski. \u201cBut trailblazing women in CRE are proving to young female professionals, and those still in school, that there are seats for them at the table.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I hope these women inspire you all, and I hope the commercial real estate industry\u2014and the country in general\u2014keeps making strides to finally shatter that glass ceiling. And I don\u2019t know about you, but I am definitely ready to get in formation!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mydigitalpublication.com\/publication\/?i=785164\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Read the March Digest.<\/em><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Women have made great strides.
