Real Estate Balance

Talking accent bias at UKREiiF 👇💡 We worked with our Real Estate Balance members and EG to hold a panel discussion on accent bias on the Transforming Government Property Pavilion at this year’s UKREiiF conference. We brought together the property professionals listed below and pictured above (from left to right) who represent different countries and regions of the UK to share their experiences and insights into accent and how it can impact careers: Tim Burke – Deputy Editor, EG (moderator) Rav Cheema – Associate Director, Estates Efficiency, LocatED, and REB Policy and Campaigns Committee member Paula McLeay – Programme Director for Places for Growth, Cabinet Office Emma Guthrie – Partner, Property and Infrastructure, Shepherd and Wedderburn, and REB NextGen Committee co-Chair and our very own Sue Brown – REB Managing Director Their conversation was fascinating and you can read a full report on it here: https://lnkd.in/ehTkiVgt #RealEstate #Property #DiversityMatters

We thought it would be good to update our followers with the Real Estate Balance's NextGen Committee's new focus going forward. The Real Estate Balance NextGen Committee represents the up-and-coming generation of real estate and associated sector professionals and is a key part of our mission to further equity, diversity, and inclusion in our industry. The committee will now focus its work on the findings of their survey research in three distinct areas: ▪️Barriers to entry and widening access to the industry ▪️Supporting the development of talent ▪️ Developing inclusive cultures Look out for our updates on their activities in these areas over the next 18 months as we are sure there will be lots of opportunities for members to get involved. We are also very pleased to announce that the Committee have two new co-Chairs going forward, joining Emma Guthrie, Real Estate Partner at Shepherd and Wedderburn, who has been jointly and brilliantly leading NextGen since November last year. Our two new co-chairs will be: Kevin Boakye, Talent Acquisition and DEI Specialist at Hines and Jasmine Ceccarelli-Drewry, Senior Advisor, Strategic Advisory at Montagu Evans Watch this space! 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 #RealEstate #Property #NextGen
