Real (Estate) Talk: Boomers, Gen X and Millennials championing inclusion in real estate leadership
Self-made.
First in your family or community to do something? Sure. But "self-made", implying that one's leadership journey has been within a vacuum, is hard to find in a people-based, service-oriented industry like real estate.
Instead, it is fitting to pay homage to those that have helped us, even if it were just a kind word of "you've got this!"
Life is the input of everyone who touched your life and every experience that entered it. We are all a part of one another. --Yuri Kochiyama
In this video, the historic 2022 president of the Atlanta REALTORS® Association, Karen Hatcher, does just that! In this inspiring interview, Madam President shares just some of the organizations (some that you may want to find a local chapter from which to glean) and individuals (of the many) that have sharpened her to become this local association's first president that simultaneously is:
+ A millennial
+ A boutique realty brokerage owner
+ A married mom with 3 children (with the oldest just completing third grade)
+ Real estate developer and investor
+ A Black woman
Her dedication as a "guardian of the real estate galaxy" shines through thanks to those that have helped her along her association service journey.
Who has nurtured you along your journey? How can you share your thanks? What a great time to celebrate those that have been in your corner!
Here's to your success!
