Whether it was taking on leadership roles in her high school choir groups or having a little in her college sorority, being both a mentor and a mentee has remained important to her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Gines always expected to pursue a career in investment, real estate was not initially the path she envisioned. It was the combination of analytical and interpersonal work that ultimately drew her to her role at CenterSquare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After joining the firm as an analyst in 2017, Gines began gaining hands-on experience early in her career. During one meeting, she expected to sit back, listen and take notes until her own mentor told her she would be leading the introduction. The experience helped Gines build confidence in her abilities, something she credits in part to having the support of her mentor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now on the other side of that relationship at CenterSquare, Gines has taken on mentees of her own while still finding ways to challenge herself, grow into her role and pass on what she has learned to those coming up behind her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some highlights from the conversation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>(00:53) Finding the right path<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>(6:31) Early practice and building confidence<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>(13:02) Overcommitment and burnout<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>(18:44) The power of mentorship<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>(23:14) Building credibility and your personal brand<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>(30:27) Final advice and what\u2019s to come<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" allow=\"autoplay *; encrypted-media *; fullscreen *; clipboard-write\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"160\" width=\"640\" style=\"width:100%;overflow:hidden;border-radius:12px;\" sandbox=\"allow-forms allow-popups allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-storage-access-by-user-activation allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/the-learning-curve-still-learning-while-leading\/id1552202952?i=1000793434494\" ><\/iframe>\n\n\n<p><em>Follow, rate and review CPE\u2019s podcasts on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/192KwbDpOsZbF3dBXfaDkS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Spotify<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/ro\/podcast\/commercial-property-executive\/id1552202952\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Apple Podcasts<\/a>,<\/em>&nbsp;<em>and don\u2019t forget to subscribe to CPE\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@CommercialPropertyExecutive\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">YouTube<\/a>&nbsp;channel!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CPE\u2019s Mikayla Sciortino sits down with CenterSquare\u2019s Rachel Gines to discuss the lessons, mentors and mistakes that shaped her path to leadership.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3749,"featured_media":1004811941,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21783,21795],"tags":[33334],"class_list":["post-1004811939","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-investment","category-podcasts","tag-centersquare-investment-management"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
